[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Starbucks. They do offer comprehensive benefits to "eligible" PT employees (not sure what makes one eligible, but they include 401(k), PTO, tuition assistance, etc) and it will teach her valuable lessons in working under pressure, time management, dealing with different personalities, meeting many different peoples' expectations, managing changing priorities, so on.

And everyone should have to work in food service at some point in their lives.[/quote]

I've never seen a teen working at Starbucks. [b]They are all liberal arts grad[/b]s. [/quote]

My first job was at starbucks when I was 16 and many of my coworkers were the same age (under 18). But this was 16 years ago so things may have changed in terms of their hiring practices.[/quote]

Sure they are jerk face. Because you ask every barista what their major was. Or if they went to college. Since Starbucks offers considerable tuition assistance, I am sure it never occurred to you that those baristas may very well still be in college or returning.

OP, your kid is 16. She can have those jobs when she graduates HS and gets to college. Almost nothing she does now will matter later or get her the results you want now.[/quote]
