Son has a part time job. He turns 16 tomorrow, and didn't even apply, but his sister made such a good impression on her paper round that the shop owner asked for my son specifically. (He has just moved into larger premises as a convenience store). I think it may be something to do with my son being smart, intelligent, well behaved and mannered, and 6'4" and built like a second row forward.
Just has to check legislation for who can sell alcohol, tobacco and firearms lottery tickets.
