Caleb Herring replied to Ben's discussion Did your Grandfather or Great Grandfather fight in WW2?"My Grandfather is the one with the eye-patch. He served in the Navy during WWII, I'm not sure about which boat. According to my Grandmother, he drove the U-Boats onto the Normandy Beach during D-Day, then he had to clear the bodies off the…"
Caleb Herring replied to Caleb Herring's discussion How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?"I hadn't thought of that. My Dad has quite a few connections, he used to own a construction company. I'll see what I can do with that!"
Grant Longden replied to Caleb Herring's discussion How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?"Unlucky there Caleb, did you offer to work for free, just for the experience? Do you also plan to chase him up about it, although he said no this time, he also said if you had came a month earlier he'd have taken you in. So make yourself known…"
Caleb Herring replied to Caleb Herring's discussion How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?"Well gents... The expected happened, I got rejected. He said had I come to him a month earlier he would've gladly taken me in. But he got in a motorcycle accident so he was working from home, and blah blah blah...
I then thought since I was out…"
Caleb Herring replied to Caleb Herring's discussion How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?"Thanks again, guys. I'll probably stop by the shop tomorrow after school (they aren't open on Mondays) and put this advice to practice."
Caleb Herring replied to Chris J.'s discussion What's the Manliest Book You Would Like to Read?"I hate to be cliché, but Ernest Hemingway is always a good pick. I'm halfway through For Whom The Bell Tolls, and I think it's great!
NOTE — I rarely ever read books. So for me to say it's great is probably not worth…"
Karl Helweg replied to Caleb Herring's discussion How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?"I have had a similar desire to work in stone masonry.
Good or bad my plan is simply to offer to work/learn for one or two weeks for free and impress them with my motivation and ability to lift heavy things. Even if they do not want me at the…"
Brian W. Barrett replied to Caleb Herring's discussion How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?"This
Is how my uncle started at a machine shop when he was a kid. Or is it young man?
Prior to being drafted during the Vietnam war so prior to 1968. Just don't expect $20 an hour, paid time off, or any other benefits."
Caleb Herring replied to Caleb Herring's discussion How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?"Thanks guys! Grant, great advice! "
Dish replied to Caleb Herring's discussion How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?"I agree with Mr Longden, also stress your willingness to learn an perhaps an aptitude towards picking up on things quick. Tell him yer willing to start out sweepin floors n cleanin up, that sorta work."
Grant Longden replied to Caleb Herring's discussion How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?"If I were in your position I'd get to know what I'm dealing with first so take that crash course in motorcycle repair. You already have no experience so it'll make him much less inclined to hire you if you know barely anything as…"

Hey everyone, I've been 16 years old for a few months now and I just got a car last week. I need to find a way to pay for gas and whatever else I might need (or want), and I figured it's time to get my first job.I've got my eyes set on a local vintage motorcycle repair/restoration shop. Maybe intern there or something? I love motorcycles, but my parents won't let me buy one, so I figured I could learn to fix them up and do that through high school.I know, who'd wanna hire a kid who knows…See More
Caleb Herring replied to Dave Peyton's discussion Using the phrase 'no homo' in conversation"Yeah, I'd say this is mainly used by high schoolers. I hear it everyday at school in the halls... I severely hate the phrase. If you have to reassure to everyone you're not gay after complimenting someone... well, maybe you're hiding…"

The Barbershop
