Welcome to the working world, my darlin’ boy! He also has discovered that he intensely dislikes one of the managers, which I told him he’d simply have to get used too. It’s good for him to learn to deal with a variety of people and there is no better place to learn those type of skills then slinging fries at a fast food joint. I honestly credit my years there for making me the person I am today - with the strength to stand up for what I believe in despite the possible cost, as well as for giving me the means with which to deal with people en general. Especially as I generally dislike most folks. Heh. Ya gotta learn to put those kinds of things aside to work together and it’s a hugely important lesson to learn. Kudo’s for him having to start that on his second day of work - though the boy, he’d beg to differ and say its not at ALL worth it.
He’ll learn. *g*
