With regards to the jobs that will created by the development on 2nd Ave.,
people have been saying that they are most likely to be "low end service
jobs". As Tim Connelly wrote, these will jobs may fulfill those students
needs who need a p-t job during school or immigrants' needs to open the way
for future jobs in the U.S. It is also fair to say that in 1979, I
immigrated to the U.S. and the first job I had (for the first 2 years of my
life here in the U.S. while I was attending school) was a bellman and busboy
at the old Curtis Hotel in downtown Minneapolis. It certainly brings good
memories to mind and was the gateway to my success here in the U.S. This
society cannot operate without the garbagemen, nor could it operate without
the doctors. I resent the fact that some people are demeaning those "low-end
service jobs".
