My first job was at my brothers restaurant, I would bus tables and wash dishes. Eventually I moved up the ladder until I realized I was far too lazy of a human being to want to own my own restaurant someday. I will forever be grateful for my summer jobs that helped me pay for mission trips and of course my awesome Razer Gold Phone that I just had to have. One summer my sister and I worked at the State Fair slinging over priced burgers and fries. It was the hottest summer yet, but I had cash money! I think the grunt work of a summer job is something you never forget, but it made me realize how hard my dad had to work to make a dollar. Getting a summer job was the best thing I ever did for myself as a high school student.

Parents if you're struggling to get your kid to find a summer job you're not alone. According to several statistics only 1 in 4 High School students have a job. Only 1% of students work full time.
