I know I'd be worried too. Jen has a job offer when school starts working
for a dry cleaner. Dustin is working 2 jobs this summer.
Tell the boy's hello for me.
I've never detasseled corn. I turned 16 on March 6 and on March 7th had a job and I've worked ever since.

I'm not sure I want him working too much during school. He struggles with some of his classes and this coming school year won't be an easy one either. He doesn't like school much and it's so hard to get him to study of an evening. If he had a job, he'd never get any studying done. If he wants to make any money this summer, he is gonna have to detassel.

He filled out 20 applications and no one has called. I told him next year he was putting in applications starting at the end of April (school gets out in May.) His arm was in a cast, so that may have had something to do with it. I don't know.
