i got my own stuff to do and i have to load trucks with inventory for him while i have to do my own jobs? :fail3:
Litterally, i ran out of stuff for him to do. He was doing stuff and finishing it before i found somthing else for him to do.
That was my last 4 hours at work today. Babysitting a pipsqueek.
Like a mouse and an elephant.:shoe:

Wow, babysitting a 14-year old? That is some concerned parent.

Really? I needed baby-sitting at 14, but I'm mentally unstable. That's different. She was more concerned about my sanity and mental safety than my physical safety.

I'm pretty sure he meant that there was a new employee at work today and he was in charge of him.

Oooh, good point. He may have been an intern. I totally thought he had to watch out for the son of his boss or something.

we call those parents "bad"
then again, maybe your parents trusted you
my neighborhood has and always will be a bad neighborhood, so my parents never let me and my sister stay home alone or the two of us without anybody else until i was nearly 16 or 17 years old

I call them "not paranoid".
Though a bad neighbourhood might be a different situation.

There's several factors to consider if it's bad to leave an 8 year old alone or not. Most commonly it probably isn't, it he was educated correctly at least.

I guess by that definition I've had to babysit people older than me, because they managed to pass interviews that they shouldn't have.

let me redfine a bit here.
A 14-15 year old brat is working at my store. He can't do shit because hes physically incapable (Weak, skinny arms, like 5'0 or even 4'11 or somthing) and i have to baby sit him at work while trying to do my own stuff which is almost impossible. I can already forsee that my job this summer, is looking after a kid that should by size, still be in grade 4.
EDIT: I litterally got nothing done. I had to load him stuff so he could do it. and he didn't do too much either.
I ran out of stuff for him to do. he kept comming to me to ask what to do, when the only things I HAD left were things that only i can do.

Maybe he should do a different job. He doesn't really sound like a brat though. DId you tell your boss about your concerns, in a normal tone and choice of vocabulary?

Everyone voices and knows about it in some way. But my boss just keeps him on.
