[quote=Anonymous]I wonder what would happen if colleges came right out and said, volunteering is great and having a passion is important, but working a min wage job brings it's own set of skills. Which is true. And colleges asked for a form that your boss from McDonalds to fill out that was simple and became standard. How many hours they worked would be enough for me. Reference better. Maybe a W2 solves this. Also, as a country, I think our min wage is messed up bcs of these fast food jobs. We all get paying 15/hr makes burgers cost more. Maybe we could have a teen wage for 15-17 year olds that's 10/hr. Anyone who works with people in their 20s knows that young people could learn a lot by working a public facing job before they get into the work force. Kids are lacking some basic skills iMO If the top 100 colleges said they wanted to see it and word got out they don't mean working in mom's law firm, I'd love to see what would happen. [/quote]
