As am I.
Both my kids went to college and graduated with two degrees, on time...they had to take business, the rest was up to them.
My daughter works in NYC and my son is finishing his second year of law school. They know how to work.
Quick Sea Story: In college I applied for a non-union waitering (sp?) job in Oakland. Great place, great money, etc. but I was a little light on experience.
The head guy was great, as was the maitre d': But, fully staffed, you're a great kid, we'll let you know, etc.
On the way out, there were some construction crap in the walk way...early afternoon and no one was around. They were both concerned.
"I'll take care of it".
So I moved maybe five armfuls of stuff to the trash and went on my way.
I started a week later.
Work becomes opportunity, opportunity takes work.
