While there may be a select few jobs that Americans won;t do and illegals will, it is taking its toll on the job market for teenagers and many people trying to put themselves through college. A few years ago I can remember looking for a job after HS, and there was very little out there. Same thing with most of my friends. At the time, however, we did not know why this was.
So you weren't willing to take a job at McDonald's. When I was 16 I took a busboy job at a chain steakhouse, and probably the most disgusting one I ever had. People are pigs, that's why to this day whenever I'm done with a meal at a restaurant, I make sure to try clean up the table as much as I can, and that includes positioning the plates and utensils, and napkins in a way to make the job easier for the busser.
