My grandson got his first job! So proud.

[Ruth n Jersey]

My oldest Grandson Justin got his first job. He is 15 and works on the weekends at a little diner as a drink runner.
I never heard of a drink runner before. Maybe they use to call them bus boys.

He delivers the beverages to the tables and refills when needed. I think he may also set tables and do other odd jobs.
He loves it and is saving for a car.

He is a very hard worker and has helped out at our house in the summertime with yardwork that needed to be done.
Justin isn't afraid of hard manual work.
I'm so proud of him. The photo is a candid shot of him working and when he got his very first paycheck.

Good for him! He's building a good work ethic that will benefit him a great deal in later years.

Good for him! An important step to adulthood. Sounds, and looks like a great kid!

Really great to know there is a teen out there with ambition. You have a right to be very proud of your grandson. While doing what he is doing might not seem exciting, starting young learning about what work to earn a pay check is all about will indeed pay off in his future.

I hope he gets the car he wants.

Good for him @Ruth n Jersey. You have a right to be proud! It look like a clean and cheery place, too. Best of luck to Justin.

How great is that?? Congratulations @Ruth n Jersey. How nice that a 15 yr old wants to (and does) work for his own money. He's getting a great start in life. You have a lot to be proud of.

best of luck to you. you've made your grandma proud...

This is so great, Ruth; thanks for posting! Good news like this is so appreciated (especially here lately).

 

[Pepper]

Hugs to you and your grandson! He's a special guy, and he's got a nice grandma! Wonderful news!

A job and a savings goal!

Justin is on his way, Grandma!

 

[Signe The Survivor]

That is wonderful. Grandma is so very proud as she should be.

Good for him ! A fine young man on the right track.

He loves it and is saving for a car.

He'll love it again next April when he gets a tax refund!

My daughter had part-time jobs all through college and loved getting tax refunds. Then a few weeks ago she told me we needed to do her taxes soon. It occurred to me later that she was expecting to get money so I had to deliver the disappointing news to her that since she was in an accelerated nursing program last year and didn't have time to have a job, she can't expect a refund. Poor girl, so much to learn to become an adult.

He's on his way to becoming a productive citizen of society, and at such an early age.
I'm so happy for him and for you Ruth

How wonderful, @Ruth n Jersey! Glad to hear he's got such a good head on his shoulders!

 

[Jules]

Kudos to Justin. You have every reason to be proud of him @Ruth n Jersey

It is so great to see teens who want to work their way up the ladder rather than simply relying on Social Media to catapult them into success. So many are disappointed, but Justin will find success through hard work!

That's wonderful, congrats to the young man.
