First Summer Jobs, It's that time!

First Summer Jobs By JB

What was your first summer job? What did you want to buy with the money you earned? What was your pay? What did you learn?

I passed the questions about to several friends. The responses have been numerous, various, and sometimes humorous.

They are great memories if you will reach back and recall your innocence. I have received so many responses that I am opening up the hot line for more good stories. They are everywhere!

The object of this summer project is many faceted. These stories are of growing independence, responsibility, commitment, accountability, and maturity at a young age.

Where are they now? Those young teens that went out, found a job, stuck with it, and learned life lessons. Those jobs at the time might have seemed to be beneath them. But if you think back…. These stories are nostalgia. They show the early determination and responsibility of successful people. They are insightful if not inspirational.

Thanks to my friends for some great stuff. This offering includes a little insight on Mayor Brian Loughmiller and Independence Bank CEO David Brooks!
