I think this kind of thing has gotten so out of control lately. I'm 17 and would have loved to get a job that i actually would like to have but cant get hired to do anything im capable of doing. For the youth of today that are good with their hands and hard labor they have to try and create their own work by soliciting, they cant just go out and so ok i woudl be a good farm hand or a good hardware store worker. you just cant get hired. I've worked at two different jobs for very short periods of time because the job was jsut so ridiculous it wasnt funny. i actually told my last real boss that i had a more lucritive job offer to shovel manure at my uncles farm and that id sooner do that for nothing than work at that place one minute longer. These food industry places hire all these 16 yr olds and then tell them oh your not allowed to wash this or that because the law prohibits but you still get chewed out if it aitn done. it doesnt make much sense. a 16 yr old can work a fryer with 350 degree oil but they cant work at home depot. this worlds going to the dogs
