Interesting topic! No, never protested. Never needed to.
It was when I was in high school. They wanted to take away our smoking area.
I'm surprised your school even had a smoking area.
I am 51 years old. Things were different back then.
It is 21 here now. It is a federal law.
Wow, insane. Bet there was a lot of drama and arguments with parents, would you say that's the case?
Oh yeah, everything is 21 in the USA now
I was really young when I started. Didn't get in trouble for it until I was like 15 or so. I quit because I am cheap and didn't want to pay. Now they are way to much cash. 10.00 to 15.00 a pack.
How old were you when you started? Clearly below age 15 from your post, wow.
Trouble with ? The law? Parents?
Remember, inflation and all that. Wages are also much higher now ;p
10
If I remember right, was no law back then. Parents. I don't think they did anything. Said I had to buy my own and I couldn't smoke in front of them or something like that.
What were employment laws like back in the day? Were you allowed to work at that age? lol. wow.
I had 2 paper routes at that time.
How did they even find out? I bet you didn't smoke in front of them, lol
You kidding me?
I believe the age now here is 14.
Step dad caught me. hehe
...and from that day on, you got a job?
No had the paper routes before then....and from that day on, you got a job?
Before age 10? Wow, no laws at all. Do you think that's a good or bad thing? What age do you think people should be allowed to be employed at? Do you think it's a good idea for laws to be changed to allow younger peeps to be employed?
Step dad caught me at the age 15ish. Paper route I had when I was 14.
I like to stay up into the morning... better get some sleep, before I misread more of your posts. lol.
I don't really know much about gay rights in Australia, will be interesting to have a read up on it. It's a shame not all countries have gay rights though. Personally I find the views of the Catholic church hypocritical.
