Have you ever been told that if you are having problems learning new technology that you should ask a 12 year old? It seems that a car dealership in Quincy, MA, has taken this to heart. Quirk Motors has hired 16-17 year old young adults to walk new car owners through all of the features of their new vehicles. They are paid $11/hr and must go through Ford Certified Training. Their grades are monitored and their hours are cut if their grades have fallen. The response to this has been overwhelmingly positive; in fact, there was one older gentleman who had initially resisted----"You're just a kid, what can you show me?"----and later thanked his consultant.
