[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 671889, member: 1550"] Lil, this was exactly MY problem. Yet other new hirerees KNEW what to do with the same lax training. It was me, not the managers. I needed step by step teaching and the ability to ask questions a lot to catch on. And it still took longer, often much longer, for me. But nothing can be done if your son will not cooperate. I feel badly for all of you. Most jobs, especially low skill, expect you to catch on FAST and most Hired people do catch on. It was uniquely me that I did not understand. There is little tolerance for slower-to-catch-on learners. It requires special services. I hope your son changes his mind and allows himself to be tested to see why he struggles so much, like I did. He may NOT be lazy, just confused and puzzled that he can't catch on fast enough. I'd avoid fast food. It's NOT an easy job for ANYONE with a possible learning difference.Unskilled, it is. Easy, it is not.A slower pace may help him. It helped me. A host job for a restaurant. Washing dishes. One step jobs. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
