HOW TO SUCCEED IN THE WORK PROGRAM The purpose of the work program at Tallulah Falls School is to teach us im- portant principles such as punctuality, following directions, taking orders from a supervisor, and staying with jobs until they are completed. It also teaches us something else important: responsibil- ity. Whether you ' re slinging around a $16 swing blade or driving a riding Work Is The Great Common Denominator. All Of Us Work. lawnmower, you are responsible for that item. Student attitudes about work are de- termined by their job, because each has its own advantages and disadvan- tages such as time, location, other crew members, and supervisor. A per- son could get anything from morning cook to mail run to evening dishwasher to riding lawnmowers. Each of these jobs breaks down into various assignments, ranging from working with the farm crew to massa- creing the evil foe, kudzu, with a swing blade. And sure as the sun rises, every- one at TFS gets a job, regardless of race, creed, color, sex, or national ori- gin. Tallulah Falls School is an equal opportunity employer. When asked to comment on the work program, work supervisor Don Bundrick said, Work is the great com- mon denominator. All of us work. No matter how rich or poor you are, we are going to work, whether to make money or to keep it. What do we learn from work? Good work skills and habits. Whether you work for McDonald ' s or IBM, most em- ployers are looking for people with good work skills and habits, Mr. Bun- drick added. — STEVE BURNHAM Annie Brantley works on pots and pans in the kitchen.
