I just came back from the Payless Supermarket by the mall where my son Nick just started working. I guess I could say this is his real first job but it's not his first in which he earned a paycheck. His first was on a friends farm at the age of 10 I think. You see, Nick loves animals and has spent numerous hours in local pet stores just hangin out. He has had many pets over the years so this job was fascinating to him. His job on the farm? Cleaning out horse stalls 2 hours on Saturdays at a friends horse farm. Each time I came out to pick him up he wanted to stay & do more work....even for free. This past summer he did 2 things. He worked with a female friend cleaning apartments. This was short lived as it was inconsistent. He also helped me to remove weeds from landscapes of resident's houses. I am so proud of the big guy, 2 more years and he's out of school, the times have been fantastic.
