Money . . . for something It seems to be common for teenagers to have jobs. Many people work at gas stations, clothing stores, guite a few work in fast food resfauranfs, and var¬ ious people have ofher jobs. Whaf are their reasons for working? If gives fhem a chance to become more financially independent and able to spend money on whatever they want, says junior Brad Johnson. Another stu¬ dent, Shawn Lavender, says that he en¬ joys the extra spending money. Others commented that it gives them a chance to meet people and to buy things that they never had the money for before. Some have to make car payments, which means other expenses, such as insurance, repairs, and gas costs. Everyone agrees that even with the good pay, and extra spending money, there are a couple of disadvantages to working. It takes many long hours and along with a vigorous day at school is really tiring. A lot of free time for sporfs and other activities, including family outings have to be sacrificed in order to study. It takes determination to keep regular working hours and grades from falling. It is not easy, but it can be ac¬ complished and is just as rewarding as the pay check.
