I’m glad it’s done, too." It’s What He Said: My 17 year old niece asked me if she could use my name as a reference on her resume, which she planed to submit to a local fast food restaurant. I agreed.

When I asked her why, she replied, "The manager wants me to come for an interview, and she told me to bring my references." We Labor Together With God, |
