How the Employment Agency Helped My Sister Grow Up

My little sister was never the most motivated person in the world, but she is extremely smart. However, she definitely does not make smart choices in life and by the age of 18, she was a high school dropout who was not even motivated to get her GED. I told her over and over again that if she would go get her GED she could go to an employment agency and they would help her find a job.

My sister was miserable living at home with my parents, but her job at a local fast food place was not paying her enough for her to move out. For this reason, I wanted to get her motivated to make it to an employment agency so she could find a job that actually paid her enough to live off of. She always agreed that she probably should go take the test and go to an employment agency, so she could actually grow up and be on her up, but she was just too lazy to actually put in the effort to do so.

The idea of an employment agency, in my opinion, are awesome because they help people get on their feet who need a little extra help when it comes to getting a job. Also, if someone was laid off and is having trouble finding work, they always have the option of going to an employment agency to get matched up with a job so they can support themselves and their families. Right now in America finding work is hard and an employment agency makes it their business to keep people out of poverty and off the streets.

My sister eventually got fed up living with my parents. They were enforcing curfews and rules on her that she did not want to follow. They kept telling her that if she was going to be a bum, stay at home, and not try to go to an employment agency to find a job, she was just going to have to deal with their rules. So, finally my sister set a date to get her GED.

Of course, she passed with flying colors. My sister may not be organized or motivated, but she is definitely not dumb. If she would apply herself a little more she could definitely be very successful in life. Anyways, after she found out her test results I personally took her down to the employment agency to help her get lined up with a job.

After all of the paperwork my sister had to fill out for the employment agency, it was a waiting game. She wrote down her skills and her experiences and then the employment agency told her they were going to look for a job to line her up with. In the weeks that followed, my sister jumped every time the phone rang. I could tell she was nervous. Finally, she was ready to grow up, have a big girl job, and get out of my parents’ house.

Eventually, the employment agency called; they had found a job for my sister. They described to her what type of work she would be doing and let her think about whether she wanted to take the job or not. She told them she did not need time to think about it and she wanted to start as soon as possible! After a few weeks at her job, my sister was raving about it and was so happy she had decided to go to the employment agency.
