[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 699009, member: 1550"] He can work at a restaurant FYI. I work at one and for host and servers you don't need any diplomas. They are laid back about your personal life too as long as you don't bring it to the job. Some servers are good and make a nice buck. Just a heads up. Of course these kids are also working with kids who are in college too so it can be a good influence. I mostly work with 18-30 year olds and some are so together and many are lost. This is one place the lost kids can start to build a life. I am not sure all restaurants are like my chain. I am guessing most are but it's just a guess. I am very much a fan of my house/my rules. I am rather strict too,like nobody smokes in my house. Nobody. One daughter smoked for a while, but if I knew she had cigarettes I took them so she learned best not to sneak them in our home. Non smokers can sniff out a cigarette quickly. She has long since quit smoking. I did not allow drug users in my house if I knew they were drug users. We had several neighbor issues when my drug using daughter brought cronies into our yard. I got fined once because a minor kid, who I didn't even know, smoked in my yard. That did it for gatherings in my yard. Also they made noise. I could go on and on. My way of l looking at it, and not everyone shares this, is that my home is my castle and sanctuary and the one place I control. My cars ditto so two things You don't drive my car if you don't follow my rules. I had all my kids pay their part of the car insurance and gas too. My strictness in certain areas paid off in my opinion. I have four grown kids, all self sufficient, all with stellar work ethics. They have the same my house/my rules in their own homes and I respect them. [/QUOTE]
