She's 16. She needs a job.
This is why she needs a job...
I wish I knew how to make this bigger, so in case you don't have a magnifying glass available at your computer...that's her cell phone bill for $92.20. When she got the cell phone, the agreement was she would pay us $10/month for her line and any charges accrued due to going over her texting limit.
The last 2 years she has had a great summer job. She and her brother sold produce at the local Farmer's Market. It was hard work, but they made a nice little profit. At the close of last year, she said she wouldn't be working at the Farmer's Market because she would be 16 and would have a "real" job.
So far, no "real" job has materialized. And she wrinkles up her nose in disdain at the mention of fast food emporiums. Personally, I rather liked my high school job at McDonald's. I learned some valuable life lessons--how to multi-task, how to interact with the public, etc. As well as some great sayings..."If you have time to lean, you have time to clean"; "If you have time to talk, you have time to stock".
Anyway, back to Katelyn. She's 16. She drives. She's great with kids and running errands. Until a "real" job becomes available, she is available for hire.

Grandpa always has weeds to pull & I need help cleaning the seewing room ( it still has stuff from "Wizard of Oz" lying about. Pays not bad & there is a new puppy for entertainment during breaks.
I wondered what the damage from all of the texting with Jenny's nephew Brady was going to be. Did she mention all of the flirting that went on while she was here?
