[QUOTE="CottageFarm, post: 1116077, member: 16552"] I didn't see anybody mention jobs for the mentally challenged. I suppose that would depend upon the extent of disability. HS & College kids.. yes, low skill, low demand jobs do seem pretty perfect for them. As well as anybody else looking for an undemanding supplemental income. If one were inclined to start a business, what kind of business to start? Well, I guess that depends on aptitude. There are millions of small businesses out there, one must find their own niche. I might also suggest some coursework in management and marketing before getting started. It's easy to bytch about how unfair employers are right up until one has faced the same challenges. If one wants to have a career that pays more than retail, one must learn to do something of more value. A quick glance at want ads, has all kinds of jobs available, especially in certain trades like electrical & HVAC (I know for a fact those both pay better than Walmart) and lots of stuff engineering related, at all levels. And, of course, lots of stuff in sales. Those little guys have to work a bit harder to compete against the chains, so they're willing to pay a skilled sales force. [/QUOTE]
