If the student is going to work, they have to find a job that they like and are going to stick with until they have a chance at moving up or finding another suitable job.

However, every once in awhile, you will find most students listening to the music of today to be counted in. Just like clothes, music has to have a new look, to sell. Rock 'n' Roll has always been in, just updated every year. About five years ago, hard rock was really in. Jeff Bixler seems to be asking, What did you say?
