Sounds like where I work but they keep most of them for some reason. When a special needs type is on the path for termination, it usually takes a few months unless it something really big.

So then they want experienced people, but still only offer them 22k a year...and wonder why they can’t find a decent employee.

I told my daughter when she went for a summer intern position this past summer to remember two things: (1) work hard at
whatever they give you to do; (2) be cheerful and never complain.
They loved her! Apparently this kind of work ethic is not as common as it used to be.

I taught high school until about 5 years ago. I used to think how frightening it was that these were the folks who were going to be running things in a few years. Of course, I had some wonderful students, but most were lazy, couldn’t follow directions and thought life was going to be handed to them on a silver platter.
On the other hand, I remember thinking, after I got out of college, that it hadn’t really prepared me for a job.

Jeanne Achille also was disappointed with the hiring of a recent college hire, promoted by a university professor as a "superstar" and fired after three weeks when it was discovered she spent hours online at work visiting a dating site. She also tweeted about a night of partying -- then e-mailed in sick the next day. Welcome to the "employer's market" sweetie. Yes, it did happen overnight--enjoy!

She is very lucky to have a Mom like you.
Children learn their work ethic from their parents.

We can start by doing what the greatest president of our time wanted to do. Abolish the Dept of Education. This dept. is totally worthless and a mega cash drain.
And in case you don’t know which president I was referring to—Can you spell Reagan?

Now OBOZO wants every U.S. Inhabitant to be a College Graduate! He doesn’t believe in Our Craftsmen, and All Productive Citizens who dont need to waste four to five years of their life learning about the details of the Lint in their Navels!
