[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it just corporate greed? Or can we not find people who want to do the menial jobs anymore? I know very few high schoolers who work “normal” jobs like babysitting and grocery bagging. They are busy on their phones or else doing prestigious resume building volunteer work or paid work. Every barista I know is past college age. [/quote]

I live in Loudoun County and that is definitely not true of the teens here. Every teen I know (in a nice neighborhood) has a real PT job, including my own. Commonly restaurant or retail. They all tend to work 1-2 shifts a week during the school year and more in summers. FWIW its actually really hard to get babysitting jobs now. I'm not sure why. It seems like young parents rarely go out anymore, or if they do they just take the kids and stick them on iPads? I'm not sure.  But the families that my teens babysit for call them just a couple of times a year, which is why they needed to get "real" jobs instead. Babysitting is not steady income. [/quote]
