FWB says
Fast food use to be a stepping stone for youth to gain work experience. Now it appears working at Carlos Jr is now a 40 hour a week career. I’m seeing help wanted signs at fast food establishments that say must be able to work any day, any shift. No longer are they willing to work around a school schedule. My first job after my paper route was working at the Purple Pup on Palmdale Blvd, they worked around my school schedule.
