Knowing you from reading your posts on here, the best employment advice I can give you is this...

You have two ears and one mouth for a reason. While you are working, you should listen twice as much as you talk.

BTW, don't let your peers know that your uncle runs the store.

Good luck.

That's great advice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not quit sure what you meant by this, but I enjoy reading his posts as much as I do anyone's.  BC can take a ribbing(UFO's, and Sarah Palin---15 y/o hormones I guess ;)) has respect for his parents and seems like a good young man. I'll bet he will do fine, and just maybe we will see his name in BASS MASTER's mag.  :)

The intention of a 401k is long term investment for retirement, not to pay for a college education.  Only early withdrawal should be made in case of an emergency.

Don't know if this option is available in all states but college can be prepaid at today's rate.  My sister has 3 kids in college under this plan and my daughter has pre paid for our gr daughter, she's only 10 now.  Wish that had been available or I knew about when my 2 were in school.

It means the boy should listen twice as much as he talks. Pretty easy, sound advice in all aspects of life for most people.
