My son's problems were girls and low grades. Also, he went to school, delivered
"take out", but never did an internship or held a real job, even though he
had worked part time all through school. When he got his MBA, the banks
were not impressed with his delivering for Steak Out. Finally, he landed a
job with Nations in Charlotte, N.C. and now makes more than his old man
after three years. As you might gather, I am very proud of him. He's just
bought a home in the Dilworth part of Charlotte.
