[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was here in DC area in the 1980s. Those jobs (while sometimes crappy) were seen by all as spending money and free food. I attended a Catholic High School where tuition was not cheap. Whether working at the country club or working fast food. A job was a job. Everyone was expected to have some sort of part time job. When did this all change?[/quote] I don't know when or why this changed, but based on the job-hunting experiences of my teen daughter and several of her friends most of the fast food places around my NoVA neighborhood appear to have a tacit "Non-hispanics need not apply" policy. She found other part-time work, in retail mostly, but those fast food "starter jobs?" Nope. [/quote]
