Jason has his 1st job this summer at Lagoon which is a small amusement park north of Salt Lake City. They are one of the only places to employ 14 yr olds unless you know someone, who knows someone. Vint's boys, Aaron and Adam are working there also. Mom lives just a few miles away so they will spend alot of time with her this summer.
This is Jason's 1st official pay check. Lagoon was only open weekends in April so it was only for 2 days work and they take money out of the 1st check to pay for uniforms, training books and his badge. Is that not stupid, you have to pay to have what you need to work. Supposedly at the end of the season if you turn everything back in you get it back, but there is something wrong with that policy I think.
Anyway, his 1st check was a whopping $6.04. Don't want to spend that all in 1 place! Congratulations Jas!

That is ridiculous! But I would imagine that Lagoon lost a lot of uniforms before resorting to the paycheck policy.
How fun! Is Justin going to be working there again? He's probably too busy, huh? Are you getting ready for the big trip? How many days?!?
Tell him when I worked at Yellowstone one summer the wait staff usually owed the park money. They didn't make minimum wage, since they made tips, and then money was taken out for room & board. Most of the time their checks were negative!! So, $6 bucks ain't too bad! Plus, I’m jealous!!!! I ALWAYS wanted to work at Lagoon…but it was soo far away. Have a great summer Jason!
