2nd Entry Part-time jobs are good for students.

Having a part-time job is a valuable experience for high school students.
They can learn many things that are not usually taught in a classroom.
For example, the can learn how to work with older people.
They also get experience with the business world.
Having a part-time job gives students a sense of independence.
They can also earn money to use for college.
Education is more than just school subjects.
Learning about the real world is also important.

1st Entry *** Learning Responsibility ***


My first job was as a sales clerk in a small clothing shop. It wasn't difficult job, and it wasn't really very a interesting job. Dressing neatly and professionally was an important part of the job. Every weekend i had to open the store at 10:00 a.m. I couldn't be late. I helped customers find clothes, and I kept the store neat and clean. I used the cash register and handled credit cards, so I had to be very careful. These things all taught me responsibility.I learned how to choose and order new clothing. I don't work with clothing anymore, but I still use that skill I learned in my first job.
