I’ve been working at a summer camp for the past five years and I love it! They pay well, they give you a free place to stay, they do your laundry every week, and you don’t have to pay for food. The main reason I love it though, is because I like getting to teach campers about things that I’m interested in, like archery and drama. This year, I really wanted to work the whole summer, but my dad is firmly against it. I don’t know what to do about that! He says that I need to get a different job to show that I’m willing to work with a company for a long time, but by the end of summer, I would have to change jobs because I will be moving to my college campus. He also tries to make the point that I will make more at another place, but for a first time employee, it’ll be hard to make $200 a week where I live (which is what I will be making at camp.) Do you have any advice on how to convince my dad to let me work at summer camp again?
