My Dad say's that I can apply for any job and my very first one is gonna be working at Carl's Jr. I want to work there because my Aunty worked there and she said that she got paid $130 - $150 dollars everyday she worked and that's why I want to work at Carl's Jr so I can get paid the same amount of money as my Aunty so I can be rich. My Aunty has been away in Australia for 5 months know but we keep always keep in touch with each other on my Sister's Facebook page. It is so cool in Australia because you have the cool shops flasher then New Zealand shops, you have the Houses and the Cars as well.
