Sooner than later, the lines at your local fast food joints will be filled with more summer job seekers than hungry customers. Mallrats will be replaced by well-mannered students with résumés in hand. And your parents will begin a steady, annoying cadence that will only end when you’ve got a place to finally stamp your timecard:”Have you’ve found a job yet… Have you’ve found a job yet?
