The job market of 2008 is shaping up as the weakest in more than 50 years for teenagers seeking summer work.

our econemy is thriving and like my girlfriend has just found out, its easy to get a job in fast food places and large department stores because of it.

Holy crap!
The kid in the picture could be my cousin Collin's twin O_o
Anywho...

Get a job with my company.
Despite the economy,
My boss told me that
We're doing extremely well :D
Record sales this year.

But really...
A lot of the other business managers tell my boss that they don't want to hire teens because of our 'lousy' work ethic...
Though they always envy my boss for hiring the good' kids.
It's kind of funny actually.

Sorry to burst your lovely little bubble Stephen, but the Australian economy is NOT thriving.

ok, in west aus it definetly is with the mining boom. elsewhere its still growing. thriving? probably not a good choice of words. but teenagers can get casual jobs reasonably easily all the same.
