8. He Couldn’t Believe This

Art couldn’t believe that a boy at this age would have the courage, determination and careful planning. He realized that he was very serious about the job interview. “I’m thinking to myself, ‘here’s a kid walking almost ten miles in the ice and slush and snow for the hope of a job at minimum wage’. That’s the kind of story your parents used to tell, my parents used to tell, up both ways in the snow.”, Art said later. “He had actually planned his time well and the interview was still two hours away.”
