Dear Abby Supervisor can’t find teens who are dedicated to work
DEAR ABBY: The letter from “A Teen, Centerville, Iowa” just sent me through the roof! (She complained because the fast-food place where she was employed also hired women in their 50s, thus depriving teens of jobs.) This situation is symptomatic of why the Japanese are beating our brains out. I supervise the work of many parttime workers and usually have a choice between using teens or older people. It’s been my experience that older people have more dedication to the job and are more reliable than teen-agers. It’s not fair to generalize, but the teens I’ve known seem more interested in the money, and my guess is that they will draw more from unemployment and welfare in the future than they will from gainful employment. BILL FROM BIRMINGHAM DEAR BILL: I hope you’re wrong. The teen from Centerville does not speak for all teen-agers. There are some hard-working, responsible teens who earn their
Heloise Getting rid of unwanted weevils
Dear Heloise: Help! I've got teeny tiny bugs in my pantry. They have invaded all my baking mixes and no matter how often 1 spray or what I use, 1 can’t get rid of them. I’ve had to throw out all my mixes. What are these bugs anyway? What can I do to get rid of them? Mrs. Taylor, Spring, Texas These pesky little bugs are probably weevils. They are usually brought home from the store in grain products like flour, com meal or even dog food. Sometimes they’re evident right away, sometimes they can’t be seen for a while. Once they have arrived, they spread to other grain products in the pantry and are difficult to get rid of. The first thing you should do is remove everything from the pantry shelves. Wash down the shelves with a little dishwashing soap and water. Any items that are weevil-infested will have to be thrown away. Then place any remaining grain products in either glass jars with lids or self-sealing plastic bags. An old-fashioned hint is to place a bay leaf in with the product, and it will keep those weevils at bay. To prevent weevil infestation, whenever you bring a grain product home, put it in the freezer at zero degrees for seven days. Heloise GARBAGE DISPOSAL Dear Heloise: I had to clean my disposal today and it reminded me to write to you about the best method 1 have found. 1 bought a commode brush just for this purpose. 1 start by running the hottest water and then adding liquid dishwashing detergent, any kind, and brush it up and down and around from top to bottom (disposal is off, of course). The brush cleans under the ring as it would the commode. 1 then pour a little bleach through and rinse it down. At this time, it is good to run orange peels through it to give it that good fresh smell. The disposal is the germiest thing around the kitchen and it is good to do this quite often. Eva Skees, Louisville, Ky.

At least that’s what I’m told by the managers of McDonald’s, Carl’s Jr., Denny’s and Big Boy’s. * * * DEAR ABBY: What does a wife do when she gets a really ugly gift from her husband? For example, an item of clothing does she just grin and wear it? What if it’s an expensive piece of jewelry that is especially hideous? I don’t want to hurt his feelings, but I

Heloise
Your cleaning method is good; however, the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers suggest that bleach should not be poured down the drain where a garbage disposal is. The bleach may damage the stainless steel on the disposal and may actually “eat” the rubber gasket. Heloise FRESHEN CAR Dear Heloise: I’ve got a way to freshen up your car without buying those expensive car deodorants that don’t last very long. I put a little bit of potpourri in my car’s ashtray. Whenever I need to freshen the air, I just open up the ashtray. It stays fresh quite a while and the potpourri will last for months too. Denise Morgan, Galveston Ind.

What do other women do? Please help me, as my birthday is coming up soon. GRINNING AND WEARING IT DEAR GRINNING: Level with your husband and offer to go along and “help” him select the gift! (This will eliminate the agonizing and speculating most men go through when shopping for a gift for the wife or girlfriend.) ♦ ♦ * DEAR ABBY: I was so glad to see that letter in your column from “A Touchy Ticket Taker.” I’ve been a ticket taker for 16 years flight attendant, and you wouldn’t believe how many people hold their tickets in their mouths, then hand them over to me! It’s been a major pet peeve of mine for years. I was so glad to see it in print. Perhaps it will

do some good, and the offenders will smarten up. And while I’m on the subject of passing around germs, please, people, don’t hand me your chewedup apple cores, used Kleenex or disposable diapers. Yuk! Reach into your seat pocket, put them into an airsick bag, then I will be happy to dispose of them for you. It’s hard enough trying to stay healthy when you work in an enclosed environment with recirculated air and 135 people sneezing, coughing and heaven only knows what else! Please, use some common sense. I don’t want any more of your germs!
