Wait youth minimum wage what?

90 days is obvious though - they want to hire kids for summer jobs and pay them peanuts because they don't have to pay bills or anything and they'll be gone within 3 months.
 
Ahhh that makes sense.

Boom

So enough about jobs before Razor gets all "weathery" about it.

Bacon Um so what are your plans for this summer? I plan on staying on my computer and doing PC. What about you?
 
Plans for the summer are to carry on working. We are rebuilding computers and testing hardware. Also setting up a new server room, which will be fun... -___-

However, I should be seeing friends every so often.​
​
 
The only thing people get 'weathery' about is weather, lol.

At least you're making money Fabio! That's what's important :3

Edit: oh wow that sounds greedy
 
Ranging from licenses servers, to student and staff web spaces, to back ups and so on. We have a lot of server blades, but it is for a lot of people so... XD

It is true though, saving money for a rainy day! :D​

Speaking of connections at the high-school/college level; one of the most inequitable cases I've observed is gaining admittance into the top ranked universities of the world on the basis of relations. Blatant slap across the face and efforts of all those who work hard and sweat for the spots.

This summer and towards the end of it: prepare for/commence university, and move to another country. Major changes are due. Maybe.
 
My plans would have to be to finish moving to my new place and getting a GBA SP along with Metroid Zero Mission and Kingdom Hearts Chain Of Memories right now as far as summer's concerned. That and escape the depths of Purgatory but one fire at a time now.

My school is notorious for legacies (kids whose parents/grandparents/whatever also went here), and it's so obnoxious. It's turned into an insult here pretty much; if you don't seem smart enough to have gotten in on your own merit, then everyone asks you which of your parents graduated from here.

@Xulek: I loved Chain of Memories! Have you played it before or will this be your first time?

Probation period? Some places are different, but 3 months is normall the probation period to see if they actually like you.​

Yeah, even I had a 3 month probation AND a 6 month probation :3 Passed both so.. YAY <3 Permanent employee~

And yeah.. same plans with me. Carry on working, living, spending money, saving money, living life :3~
 
You all have such great lives.

As a 15 year old there's not much you can go do. Soooo hi PC

Well, I'll be at a summer camp in about a month, because my parents reaaaaaally love me. Sigh

All too familiar with the type, in fact, our school has an ancient rivalry with the class you mentioned, and it's almost an established fact, that you require influential relatives to grant you a spot. You could say our school is its antithesis.

I find it quite depressing to observe that not all the classmates I've spent years with have the necessary capital needed to attain the class of education their intellect deserves. When undeserving imbeciles make it through with connections and their parents' bank accounts, it seriously bothers me.

Just wait a few years. I didn't have a great life at 15 either :P
 
4.25 an hour my god, thats really low I wouldnt even bother going outside for that! /australian wages ftw.

Admitting people into college based on who they know not their skills is a very silly thing to do for the student and the school I believe. What if the student is as dumb as two planks of wood and fails every class they in and ruin the colleges rep and make it a school of "You got money? You're in?" rather than "Oh you're really intelligent and have a good work ethic, you're in!" I know which one of the two I'd prefer to go too..
 
Australian wages are RIDICULOUS. >:/

I think it's all about what's more important to the school, school spirit or academic integrity. Often people can get away with sacrificing a little academic integrity to build school loyalty. People that go to my school are scary loyal and having an entire family of people that went there really adds to your loyalty. My boyfriend has pictures of him at 1-2 years old wearing a "Future Notre Dame Student" shirt, and no one else in his family even goes here XD;
 
Ohoho I remember. My history teacher from 7th grade was a huuuuuuge Cal State guy. He would cheer for the Cubs every time they were gonna play a game.

Oh and...if they have people graduating (without the curve), I'll say it's a good college. But that's just because I'm 15 and I don't know squat about colleges other than "Imma be a game guy someday!!!!! loolz also Game Designing is a tough job"
 
In my previous jobs, my lowest wage was like, £7.20, which is really, blooming good for retail. Haha.

However, I am on a salary now so, I can't be bothered working out how much I am on hourly.​
​
 
I get 8 bucks an hour. 7.25 is minimum wage though.
 
My mom says she gets about $105/hr from what she gets paid. She works in semiconductor engineering (i dunno either) so it makes sense though.
