It Works For Us WHERE IS MY CAR? Getting out of school eariu has been a reason for people to join half dan, work programs as Yuette Shu proves. hiere you were, trapped in florescent 1 rooms, sitting in imitation wood ' J desks, drooling disgustingly on your I paper because it ' s only 4th period and you want OUT! Then you see THEf , walking light-heartedly down the hall, their keys Jingling merrily — in their hands. Who are they? Where are they going? Why can ' t we go? These half-day people had the envy of many. They seemed to haue freedom that most of us who didn ' t work didn ' t haue. Mos( were affiliated with a club. I think it ' s neat that we haue so many clubs for people who work, Senior member of DECA Sharlin Korbar said. But still there you sat in that room, with your stomach growling and that PERSOIS in front of the room, rattling on sibout some sub- ject you won ' t haue to deal with after you cross that almighty stage. Your mind races about how wonderful it would be if you could leaue. ' 7 sometimes wish I was in half-day, but staying in school all day does let me spend more time with my friends, Senior Kelly Chanack said. But working during school is not all sun- shine and roses! You ' re out in the real world, dealing with real life situations. At some point in eueryone ' s life you ' re going to haue to get a Job, these students Just started earlier than others. I wanted to be a legal secretary, and so I think working now will help me get to know what being a real secretary is, Senior member of OEA, Beth Keene said. Chrystina Schmidt YES, I THINK WE HAVE YOUR SIZEI Some students choose to work after school hours. Suzelte Soua straight en s a rack at Lerner ' s. Chrystina Schmidt

How ' d they choose where they wanted to work; why ' d they want to work there? Until now it was a mystery ... g Working at Lemer ' s has been a great experience and has taught me hoLU to deal with customers.
