i just graduated high school. I'm outing so many applications. And heard nothing. Adults are working the part time “teen” jobs.

It’s not just that the adults are working part time in entry retail and customer service roles, it’s that they’re working 2-3 of those jobs at a time just to barely get by.

My son had been applying at a ton of companies for months. A friend of his from high school got a job and recommended my son. They both start today.

Not necessarily technology, especially in Florida, is the child labor laws or they need to have so many breaks after a certain amount of time. And the company just don’t wanna pay that.

It took both of my children well over a year and countless applications to finally get a job. They’re definitely looking. People just aren’t hiring like they say they are.

This has been a problem since I’ve been in high school. I graduated a year ago. I’ve been holding on to the same jobs since I’ve been 14. I’m not letting these go things go until I have to.💀

It’s actually insane how most of these employers expect people to have experience when applying for a job, but how would anyone that’s a teen or even young adult gain experience if they don’t get the experience

I think it’s a few things, there’s more automation in retail and fast food and all these first time job. And it’s also “adult” or experienced people taking these part time jobs for more income because their job isn’t providing enough. Like I have a full time time job, I’ll need a part time job just to be able to pay help me live on my own with no roommates. It’s a whole combination of things.
