[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My college bound DC has done a lot of volunteer work but never had a paid job. She wants to get a job this spring/summer before going to college. What kind of jobs would you recommend?[/quote] Hard labor. Seriously. Nothing helped my son more than working construction with his Dad and seeing what true hard work is. [/quote] +1 Another benefit is that these are actually good skills to have. DH has a white collar job but he also does things like lay concrete for our walkway. I do fold burritos really well but that’s about all Taco Bell has done for me. [/quote] +2. I (a woman) worked construction over the summers and the experiences changed my life. Not only the skills but the true labor. My DD will start in construction this summer as she turns 16. [/quote]
