Dear rehctub,

At least you are doing something positive to help those that
are genuine. And kudos to you for that.

FOXY's dead right BUTCH, {you're indeed, 'd man'} for persevering with these youngsters, and giving them a bit of mettle in themselves, and their own abilities. Thanks for that my friend.

Well, well, well, Butch!

A time for me to be magnanimous;

Based on your story, even this oft critic of yours, gives you a thumbs up for what you have done for one young person. Giving him a fair go, and a well deserved opportunity for the future, I say thanks. As for your claim that you might be human. Well this time we'll cast a yes vote, but that can always change.

Cheers Paul1405.

Dear Butch,

My sister saw a casual position for weekend work advertised in her local butcher and came home to see if her just turned 15 yo would be interested, suggesting if he was he might pop down the next day and try his luck. He threw on his shoes straight away and was out the door in a flash and secured the job. Working 20 hours some weekends is not the best for his studies but his sense of independence has been thoroughly bolstered. So good on you.

And good on you too for not exploiting the cheap labour on offer through the use of dole workers that many businesses engage in without ever intending to offer ongoing employment.
