-Gettinga part tiine job at that tint
wasn't all that easy. I recall my teusita
Hazel, who was ,alreatly wroliting 'there,
putting in e good wo1d for me, but after
that it was up to me to prove myelf.
As I locik back? 1 believe that this firg
job of mine finally gave me some ton-
-fidence in dealing with people. Intim
you will find it hard to believe, but as a
young girl 1 was quite shy around people.
II was even known le faint when having
to give a speech in school. What a
ference a few years makes.
Wages were Aaround a $1.00 an hour and
of mese we got our own tips from ap-
preciative customers.
Acouple of years ago, Mr. Pixit and I
dropped into Perks for breakfast, while
visiting in Brampton. It still has the open
grill and the booths looked the same. As
I sat there I recalled the numerous miles
I had walked working there. It was fun,
but most importantly, it was my beginn-
ing in the work force and a most
valuable learning experience. Of course
back then, all 1 thought of it as was a
job with some money coining in.
The six young people featured in the
student employment story more than like-
ly feel That way now, but 1 know down -
the road they will 'remember their sum-
mer -employers and whatever they are
doing today will stand them in good stead ;
in the future.

As I briefly talked to six young people,
my Mind reverted to the days When I too
was a Student VW worked part time in a
restaurant. It was :at open grill type

.dowiltown-trampton, where 1 was *rafted.
l•Enown as-'Peries 'Family Restaurant, it
catered mainly to leech time -crowds,
after school crowds and .in the evenings
the young people gathered there to enjoy
their cherry cokes and french fries. `Mew
a night 1 sat in The front booth watching
a retain yourig man drive by in his priz-
ed car, wondering how 1 could get his at-
tention. Ili/laity did and tave held his at-
tention for 21 years, tut that's another
story.
My attire included one of those
waitress dresses that buttoned up the
front, a cute little matching apron and to
complete the ,outfit pert* little cap,
that was ;attached with bobby pins. The
colour scheme was yellow with a soft
green trim. To complete my ensemble I
donned a pair of white canvas runners
(waitressing is a killer el the feet).
These uniforms were provided by the
owners of the taisiness,mul it was up to
