“Three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense,” said American Inventor Thomas Edison. Brashier students know all about hard work, and many students plan to continue their hard work through the summer by taking a summer job.
“I don’t really want to work, however, I’ll probably work a normal day, five days a week,” says Sophomore Vanessa Steadham. “I have to start paying for my car!” Steadham will be working for her parents all summer with their company FotoZoomer.
Getting summer jobs is not always easy. Summer jobs are hard to find, and students need to get applications in soon if they expect to work this summer. Another student working for their parents this summer is Sophomore Zach Singleton. “I’ll be working with my dad doing sheetrock,” says Singleton. “It’s the only job I can get right now.”
Although fun work is even harder to find, Sophomore Kyle Stephens got a fun filled summer job. “I’ll be working at Camp Old Indian for boy scouts. I’ll be a counselor and teach younger scouts…scout skills,” says Stephens. “I enjoy working there,” Stephens adds.
For some students, their summer job will be a learning experience. “I need money, and I’ve never had a job before so it will be a good reference for whenever I try to get another job,” says Sophomore Ben Jennings who works at Zaxby’s.
Even though summer jobs are hard work, they do keep students busy and keep their brains working. As Principal Mike Sinclair says, “Hard work pays off!”
