44. I had a similar experience looking for fast food jobs

in the eighties as a young person. I could never get one. Never. I eventually stopped applying for those and got other entry-level jobs, such as a ticket taker at the race track (that was actually a TEAMSTER job and paid over fourteen dollars an hour in 1984!) and day care worker, tutor, etc. I never found out why I was never hired or even interviewed for the fast food jobs. I guess I just didn't look like the right type?:crazy: It's possible that I appeared too prissy or studious or something, but that didn't stop the teamsters from hiring me! Anyway, good luck to your kids, and tell them to look into jobs in different industries.
