Last year, only about one-third of teens held a summer job.
"When I'm not in school over the summer I like to keep myself busy. Rather than go to parties like normal teenagers, I want to have a job, I want to work," Hill said. "I want to have my own money." Hill works for Anthony Bannon, who employs about 38 teens ages 15 through 18. He has two boardwalk businesses in Asbury Park — Pucker and Tony's, a sausage stand — which are open from May through October. He takes pride in giving teens their first experience in the workplace and diligently works on retaining them year after year. But Bannon's has seen a shift in teen workplace dynamics in recent years and has had to change the way he recruits, bringing younger workers into the fold.
in order for teens to work they would have to actually put their phones down for awhile. and they aren't having none of that, it's so un-civilized
Its sign of cash crunch . Economists view, Om Books And Research , New Delhi , India .
Tough to find teens that will work. Parents making it too easy for them to do nothing.
More difficult to find teen workers to hire?

At the pool
Teenagers are getting lazier, and they're taught in school that working is racist.
anyone remember why labor partition rate (age 16-99+) keeps falling over the last 20 years to 62% with no intelligent explanation. 24 and below has been the biggest driver, not the 25 and above.
No one wants part time temp jobs anymore, thing of the past
why do they have to be teens?
Triggered!!!! Just had an article about $2.50 coffee which I fully took I can be rich like Warren Buffett if I don’t drink it. Thanks Mr. Wonderful! Jobs in the summer!? I’ll just cut out the coffee! This economy is so good teenagers are finding work hahahhahaha NEWS is 🤡💀🤡💀
Yeah summer is almost over.🔥👹
Where are all of Trumps so-called jobs?
That might be good for me, After doing mostly repetitive motions with my weed wacker for last 3 1/ 2 yrs. As my only source of income, On my own, Restaurant type job, would be a great way of physically conditioning myself better & stretching & using many more of my body parts
Because they can not read, write or do basic math.
AnnCoulter FoxNews once again stupid cnbc doesn't see the deeper issue. I am not going to allow my teen daughter to work in hospitality industry where mostly illegals work and speak spanish. Americans don't fit in anymore and so they are choosing school or other things to do
A wage is not the only, or even most important thing that a young person get from a job. Learning what is required to hold down a job is a valuable part of a first job.
I know some hard working immigrant that could fill the need. Oh yeah, 'Merica first, smh
This is troubling. I hope that young people are not learning that they do not need to work. If a good work ethic is not taught at a young age, it may lead to an adult that contributes less to society than he takes.
maybe its time to go back to the Adults that used to do those jobs...ya know, the ones you forced out by surrounding them with radical acting, filthy, non complying in health/safety rules, phone obsessed arrogant teens...
Fake news
The surplus army of labor has shrunk or is unwilling to work for minimum wage.
Awesome. Labor shortages force businesses to raise wages.
Good! It pushes wages up. MSM always writes articles like this to push people to support more immigration. It's hugely detrimental to us.
TheLastRefuge2 That’s great news
The businesses may have to offer above minimum wage and compete for the first time in 20 years. 😩
TheLastRefuge2 There’s plenty of teens. They’re just too entitled to work. They’d rather walk around licking ice cream and putting it back on the shelf.
TheLastRefuge2 Fewer unemployed/available workers in labor market = better wages/benefits for the ones already working = natural growth of economy = better economy long-term. Yes, there are some long-term problems with this, but this is a result of a healthy economy.
TheLastRefuge2 Available? That’s a joke. They are unavailable because they DONT want to work. They are sitting in their parents basement on their I phones! Laziest group of teens I have ever seen in my life. The majority of them don’t lift a finger.
More businesses should offer tuition reimbursement incentives.
Funny. I worked 2-3 jobs all the way through high school - summers included. Not sure where these teenagers think their money is going to come from?
The time I spent working in fast food as a teen did more to prepare me for my career than anything academic I could have done. Managers will answer questions to teens who want to learn how business works. Learning the social structure of a work environment is also helpful.
