"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…"

"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…"

"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…"

"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."

How do I apply for a job I have no experience in?

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
