YEEEAAA my kid got a job!!!! that will help my budget! its at McDonalds but thats okay

[greenbriar]

she is 16 and 1/2 and had a great job last year and when she turned 16 they were going to make her a shift manager...instead, the building got bought out and the little burger joint went out of business. So from Jan to now, I have been supplying her with gas money and things she wanted and needed, wasn't that big of a deal, except she likes her shoes

today, she got a new job at McDonalds so it will help all the way around!!!

4. Good for you I wish you guys the best

5. When my daughter worked at McD's as a teenager,

which was about 7 years ago now, she made $8/hour. Not bad considering, many full time office jobs paid less.

[greenbriar]

7. she doesn't even know what her pay is

she assumes its minimum wage


I don't even know what min wage is anymore?



this week she is working 15 hours in 3 days...NOT bad!!!

and the new schedule comes out in the middle of the week she should have more hours when the weekend comes

6. every job helps financially, in job skills, and to get future jobs. Congrats! nt

[greenbriar]

8. thanks. She is really good working at her jobs the last one she had

for 7 months before they lost their building she was employee of the month 4 times and they were ready to make her shift manager at 16 but then they lost their building when the entire building was bought out

[Muttocracy]

9. I've worked harder at minimum wage jobs than the ones for which I needed my M.S. :)

[greenbriar]

10. I have no doubt she will do her best

she is always helpful and very attentive to detail and always smiles

I am excited for her . She really wanted something like Build a Bear or Hobby Lobby but this just came about so perfectly...

She put in an app on line on Wed. They called Friday She interviewed today and came home with the job

11. Warn her not to eat what she is serving!

[greenbriar]

12. yea, she says she will only eat salads

she is very conscious about her weight. She is not fat but like the typical 16 year old girl, she things she is

while going to college

14. congrats

my daughter just told me tonight that she got HER first job at a Chinese place where she lives. A friend of hers is a senior and is graduating so she set it up for my daughter to get the job when she leaves. She has been a volunteer at the local hospital and several people tried to get them to hire her but that fell thru so for now she will be working here.
