Pages: 23 pgs
Cast: Widely flexible cast of 10 or more

OK, teens, listen up. If you want to drive a car, go to college/grad night/prom, get a class ring or new clothes, you're going to have to - find a JOB! All the fun, frustrations and foibles of part-time jobs are explored in these scenes and monologues, from making a hamburger (first the lettuce then the onion!), to figuring our what garbled language is being spoken in the drive-thru, to presenting a phone sales pitch before the person hangs up with a thud! There are also some moments of comic fantasy as teens try to picture their dream job, as surfer and comic book reader, and how to get that perfect job with a special aftershave which makes young men smell "so employed." And of course, not to be forgotten, tribute is paid to the most important part of the job, payday! This play can definitely be classified a success.
