[quote=Anonymous]Look, I own a cafe in the DMV and I'm sorry, but no, I'm not hiring a college kid home for the summer who is also sick and injured. It costs me money to train and on-board new employees. It's not a smart financial move to put those resources toward someone who will only be available for a limited time AND who also has the hinderance of an illness and injury. I bet most owners/managers feel the same way which is why the kid isn't getting any call backs. Normally I'm all about teens working, but I think in this case, they get a pass. Especially since you say they have excellent grades. If you really want them to do something productive, insist that they volunteer. The assisted living facility my great aunt was in had people who volunteered to read to residents who had vision issues and they also led games and worked puzzles with them. [/quote]
