School kids

[Pete999]

Went to work this morning, oh hi Pete, fancy having a lad for the day on job training from the local school? why not I thought, this lad spent most of the day on his I phone, if he wasn't texting he was playing cowboys with the battery drills, oh my god I need a drink, ah that's better, what a pratt, and his old man was one of the bosses what could I do? got him tomorrow as well, any advice would be appreciated, not looking forward to it, go sick, take leave or suck it up?

Hiya
Think yourself lucky you only have one such youth, try a class of 20 of them, with me an my colleagues attempting to teach them the finer art of electrical science, with the usual comments of "why do we need to know this stuff" . Suggest you tell him he is "management material" and send him back to his old man.
