[QUOTE="rod, post: 3556008, member: 5382"] That's not the way it works. I'll give you an example. My township has a recycling program where 2 times a month 2 people work from 9 am to noon to help people with their recycle stuff. (mostly you just stand around and BS). For 3 hours the township was paying 50 bucks. A Perfect Saturday job for some 16 year old kid to make some easy money. They couldn't get enough people to fill the dates so they raised it to 75 bucks for 3 hours work. Still no kids applied. (The job WAS posted). All the openings are now filled with 60 to 75 year old people. In todays society the majority of the younger generation are just plain LAZY. EVERY fast food place and resort in the area is BEGGING for help and they usually pay better than UPS. At one of the nicer places (bar & restaurant) on a nearby lake that is popular with the boat crowd the "dock boys and girls" can make a couple hundred dollars a day in tips on a weekend and they only have to be 12.
