Typical newbie worker….when is the first break, and then when is lunch….the list goes on….It’s almost never what to do at work and staying until the job is done……what do they teach in the way of work ethic these days?

When I got my job at the retail store, the boss ask me “hey aren’t you going ask me when’s your first break?” I said, “okay, when is my first break?” he said, “lunch!” We both had a good laugh.

An employer is not impressed if your first question is when is my break? But Adam loves his coffee as do I so we have something in common.

I don’t think they teach work ethic in school. I learned about it from my parents.

Lewreader, quite some people don’t think of responsibilities at all, just their rights. Sadly.
