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!
