My son got his first job!
He is fifteen years old, he will be sixteen in August and he just got his first real job. He will be working at the Del Mar Fair this summer. Unfortunately, it only runs for about 4 weeks but he’s excited. Plus, he can take the Coaster to and from work.
My boy is gonna be a Carny! |

Good for him
My first 'real' summer job was as a helper on a carpet installing crew. His sounds a lot more fun.

Hopefully he won't bring the Yak girl home for dinner.

Great to hear.
Sounds like a solid foundation for future success. Lessens the chance of you having to evict him from your basement at 30.

Nice. He needs to learn reality and money doesn’t grow on trees.

SDRider...
Congrats to your boy for getting his first job. I can tell you’re an old school San Diegan like me... because I still call it the “Del Mar Fair”. I hate that it’s now called the San Diego County Fair. It will always be the Del Mar Fair to me. |

That's awesome !
Reminds me of one of my favorite holiday movies - Clark - “You got to be proud.” Eddie - “Oh, yeah. Yeah, last season he was a pixie-dust spreader on the Tilt-O-Whirl. He thinks that maybe next year, He'll be guessing people's weight or barking for the Yak woman." |
