While kids could show more interest in their job sometimes they are set up to fail by what the management does or fails to do. I've worked for a fair amount of moody bosses in my off farm career. I've been lucky that anything I got into that I had a fair amount of intuition to help me through the initial period. Could be the boss was not interested in doing the "book" part of the training for the kid when he hired on and got caught with his pants down when you came in. I worked for a place one time that only the boss knew if the vendors were paid or not paid. You would think the order taker at the other end of the phone line would know the situation if your employer was cut off from getting things but that is not always the case. Nothing worse than placing an order and have a week go by only to find the process has been all fouled up. Before anybody says anything sometimes you can ask the boss and sometimes you are not going to accomplish anything by talking to the boss. Because somebody "owns" a business does not mean they got it by merit. A lot of people got into business because something was bought for them or was handed to them without expectation that they would have to pay anything back. There used to be a farm supply business years ago where the owner's father used to say he gave the son the business so the son would have something to do and not hopefully starve to death. Needless to say that business failed after several years but fortunately for the old man that he did not have all his life's savings and assets tied up in it.
