In accordance to the the allure of money, societal pressure also plays a huge role in the decision process of a career. For teens, it is a lot harder to decipher

Teens work to help them gain work experience for jobs that they will take in the future. “Clark is a 16 year old who talks about how working experience can help teens like him to succeed in their career” (“Africa News Service” 1). Working experience can build a sense of confidence for teens . “Many teens talk about how having a chance to work makes them confident as a human being” (Scherer 1). Teens want work experience so they can improve in their weak points. “Bailey talks about how she was very shy, but until she started working she had become more open towards people” (2). Teens getting working experience and equally treated will help them be confident and grow up to be a good example of an

I can’t count how many teens I know who don’t feel comfortable around other people. A lot of them get nervous when someone starts talking to them because, maybe, they’re not around people who they are familiar with. By getting a job when they are younger, they can have a chance to be around people more like them, and they’d develop people skills because of their added confidence. This added confidence could help them succeed in many of life’s challenges that require them to speak their minds about their opinions and feelings. Therefore, jobs at an early age can help build confidence and make more friends. And who wouldn’t want more friends?

Student need to do what they love. Find something that they will want to study or risk never being successful because they’ll be bored with their job. College has a huge variety of programs that can be studied so chances are there is one out there for everyone. If students find something they love to do then college really won’t be too difficult and they will like their job afterwards. “Education is about finding out what form of work for you is closest to being play” (Edmundson), jobs should be something enjoyable, almost like having fun doing a hobby. People need to do what they love so they won’t be bored or held back by their lack of enthusiasm and excel to and move up in the workplace being more and more successful.

During teenage years your brain is under the influence of massive hormonal messages. Our brains are being reshaped. Depending on what the teen is doing will shape our brains that certain way. As a teen, being exposed to drugs, alcohol, inappropriate websites, violent movies/video games will affect and shape our brains and how our future will be by exposing our brains for addiction.

In her article, Miya Tokumitsu states that most people who follow the principle “do what you love” become self-centered. Being focused on ourselves and our happiness, as the author says, make us prouder than we ought to be. As a result, we create a division between those who love their jobs and those who do not. The writer defends those who do not love their jobs by claiming that not all jobs are enjoyable yet are socially necessary.

The career we have in mind as teenagers growing up may not be the same as we adult in life. I grew up playing doctor and nurses with my friends but one particular phase in my life changed that completely. The cool thing about this is, that I've always knew I wanted to wear scrubs for my future career job. Fortunately for me, this type of career was one that matched closely to my interests and personality type. From that phase in my life, I knew this was the perfect career for me.

Teenagers have enough stress as it is right? Adolescence is an awkward time of transition from childhood to adulthood which can be more than scary for most. Between spending time with family, making friends, doing homework, participating in sports or other recreational activities, and growing up in general, who has time to get a job? Although it can add to the stress of teenage life, getting a job has more pros than cons. My experience working as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) at Morgantown Care and Rehabilitation Center has been a learning experience about responsibility, patience, and compassion.

In “Doing Nothing Is Something” by Anna Quindlen, she explains that the children need leisure time during summer because it can be beneficial for them to use their imagination and ability to think for themselves. From her own experience, Quindlen points out that this leisure time was essential to become the person who she is (82). Although Quindlen’s argument for children to have leisure time is reasonable in scope, she fails to recognize the essence of the problem; the lack of leisure time is the result of today’s inflexible work culture which pressures families and children. In every culture, there should be a moderate balance between work and family.

Working set people free from their stressed, frustrated, debts, loneliness, and lead them to a happy life. Even rich people need a job because doing nothing made them bored and could not have peace in their life. According to Honore said “I have come to believe that people without jobs are not free” (page.137). It is totally true that “people without jobs are not free” because people without a job became homeless, street gang members, and slave. Also, people without jobs became to do suicide because they felt their life was empty and felt depressed.

      Jobs are very time-consuming. If a teenager works and goes to school, he will probably not have time to join a gang or get into fights. Nowadays more and more employees are getting drug-tested at their jobs. If a teenager likes his job or needs to work, he will not do drugs because he will get fired. Furthermore, if a teenager receives a paycheck he will spend his earned money instead of stealing. A job can lead a teenager to a better lifestyle and a healthier life.

  Nowadays, students love to have part-time jobs. Their parents approve it easily as they are said to gain experience from working. However, having a job is a big responsibility for a student. Before, teenagers at their age were working to help their family because of poverty. Nevertheless, they were actually eager to study and learn at school for their future. It was not the same as the teenagers nowadays where they are more likely competing to each other to have a job. Most of the

Work takes on greater importance in a society where people believe that they can master the material world and shape their own destinies, and less where they believe that they can not. An Ancient Greek philosopher said that the only stability in the world was within one's mind or soul, where ideas were secure from the unending changes that took place in the material world. In Ancient Greece, philosophers believed that a person's thoughts and ideas were more important than that person's work and that work in the material world lacked permanence. For the ancient Greeks, the status of particular occupations depended on the degree of freedom a person had, the perceived moral integrity of the occupation, and the amount of mental and physical work it required. Today we tend to feel that working in an office is better than working in a coal mine, regardless of which worker makes more money. Our language suggests that it is a privilege to work sitting down.
