[QUOTE="patooyee, post: 87296, member: 483"] That's a good point. She is one of my best employees and maybe giving her some extra responsibility will help her. I can't work her anymore than I do though as she works every night after school and all day every weekend by her own choice. I used to not give her so many hours because I wanted her to spend more time being a kid and studying, but she complained that she wasn't getting enough hours and I knew that she's not getting any financial help from her parents so I started working her as much as she wanted, which was basically all the time. She gets 1 day off a week and thats about it. If it were up to her she woudln't get that. I was afraid that working her that much would affect her grades but it doesn't. When I started giving her more hours I made a deal with her that the hours would be contingent on her grades so she brings me her report cards when she gets them and she gets straight a's, b's, and an occasional c no matter how many hours she works. She's just naturally smart and school doesn't really challenge her I guess, I don't know. It's sad seeing someone forced to grow up so fast and see them stumble along the way. I know I couldn't have made the grades in HS that I did working the hours that she does. J. J. [/QUOTE]
