Reader Tip

by Karen Moy and June Brigman

Nancy Campbell sent in the following great suggestion:

“I read your comic strip daily in the SLC Deseret News. Just thought I’d give a suggestion for Tommy. It has worked for my sons looking for first time jobs.
Offer your services to work “free” for two weeks to prove your work ethic and dependability. My oldest son did just this at an Orem Utah J.C. Penney store. He got the job and had the store’s highest sales in the shoe dept. as their salesmen during his college years.
You have probably already finished this series of comic strips but just thought I’d give a different slant to job hunting.”

Thanks for sending that in, Nancy!  I’m glad it worked out well for your sons!  Maybe it will help others who are looking for a job.
