The fast food business is largely subjugated by the teenagers. Some work because it is expected by their parents, some work to bank up money for college, and some work purely to have some extra cash, but no matter what the reason, they are still working. During school months 2.9 million people aged 15 (fifteen) to 17 (seventeen) worked during the school year and 4 million worked during the summer. This is having a huge effect on the teenagers as people. The students are still being exposed to the working world at a very young age which can have its very own benefits.
When you do a good job at work your boss pays your more. Also students will learn to handle money. When students start to earn money they will know how to use and spend the money. They won’t spend the money on useless things as much as they would when they don’t get paid at school. Students don’t understand how much work it takes to earn money and so they keep on spending money.
The “will be” had stable houses, money, a stable income, and were told how successfull their futures would be. The “delinquents” had part-time jobs to pay for where they lived,(I’ve seen seven to ten share the rent of a cheap mobile home), and were told how stupid they were. I noticed something when I attened the parties that they threw. During the “Fountain project” they did less drugs to save money for the fountain, and they attended school more so they could work on the fountain. It was the end of the year when it got taken over and you could see the
But I was shocked to see all of them actually show up. Allie Weinstock, Sarah Gaines, Katie Cucuz and Daniel Casselli all said “that they enjoyed waking up late, eat breakfast, and not being late to school.” Katie said “that she would actually come to school every day and not get signed out early.” Can you imagine how many students would actually come to school on time? Less tardy’s and sign out’s would save Plant so much paper. Sarah said “it would be a great
This caused my relationship with my parents to weaken, I did not have enough time to do school work and keep up constant communication with them. I had to find a balance, I realized that I could talk to them every sunday and although we only talked once a week, we had a lot more to talk about. This balance made the rest of the year so much easier, I was taking care of my schoolwork and at the same time keeping my relationship with my parents at the same level. Sometimes people may go overboard with their personal needs and pamper themselves with manicures and massages. To have a balanced work and family life, I believe you have to have your personal needs needs in balance.
I have been thinking of it as me having no money. That has limited me in solutions because the root problem was not correctly defined. This has impacted me by limiting my efforts of forming a solution. With spending time in school in my mind I seem to have tricked myself into not understanding why I do not have in money or source of income. In the military I was paid for schooling and having spent the past ten years in the service I just automatically assume that I should have money.
That’s the new generation for you. Now the old school was for when we was younger, and we used to break our asses. I had all kinds of stupid jobs … scrap metal sorting, dry cleaning, advertising agencies. But no more {Putting his arm around Primo} Now we’re in a rebellious stage. We rather evade taxes; make quick money; and just survive” Change between Generations.
Since schooling wasn't free in England before 1870, poor children went to free "Ragged Schools" set up by charities so after work, the poor were taught reading, writing and maths. A working day started with a 5am wake up, followed by 2 hours of factory work and then breakfast at 8am. There was then solid work until 12 for lunch, then resume work at 1pm until 8pm. Children became employed because they could work the machines better than adults could due to their smaller hands. It was also cheaper to employ children over
Things have really been looking up for me in many different ways; I was offered a part time job at the school itself as a student-employee. Feelings My first week back at school has been arduous, but very good and cultivating. I was very eager to begin school and my new job and also to meet my classmates once more. It was somewhat disappointing for me when school did not reopen as scheduled. Sociology is an intriguing subject; learning how people interact in a group opposed to when they are by themselves really opened my eyes to the reality of daily living.
Critical Thinking in My Daily Life Critical thinking is an ordinary occurrence in my everyday life. Being that I am a full time student putting myself through college, finding ways to save money and budget properly are ways I get to use my critical thinking skills often. Budget planning can include simple tasks like planning my grocery trips by making lists of only necessities, and weighing the pros and cons of going out or staying in on the weekends. I’ve also been faced with larger decisions when budgeting in the last year. When reviewing my monthly expenses, I realized I could save a significant amount of money by cancelling my cable and joining Netflix and watching movies online.
