oh my god, i love that!!!!

i do think that how you are raised plays a part in your work ethic. i came from a family that has a really strong work ethic. when i was a senior in hs, i had 2 jobs, was captain of the swim team, president of stand tall, an honor student, etc. i felt AWFUL calling out one day in a snow storm when they were toying with closing the roads!!! i understand maturity takes time, but just not showing up for work isn't cool! the other kids i work with are really sweet.
