He tried Domino’s.
The manager messed him about , an hour at a time training then sending him home.
He did that for a month then I told him to sack it.

A few other notes about golf clubs whilst I'm sat with a nice glass of wine, just in case this is something that he might consider:
Most golf clubs are either owned by somebody (proprietary) or owned by the members. Ones owned by the members tend to more easy going and (as a general rule) likely to be better to work at. Members' club members are looking after their own interests, profits run the club rather than lining someone's pockets. (That's not a bad thing per se, but worth mentioning).
Golf clubs often cater for private functions, dinners, and various other types of event ranging from small to huge. You get far more experience in a golf club clubhouse than working in a bar/restaurant.
If he gets a food hygiene cert he'll be able to do some foody stuff (pretty sure on this), which is another good thing to experience. Not sure of his age, but at 16/17 he can work behind the bar if supervised, all good experience.
Then there's a Pro-shop. They often need a bit of help, collecting range balls, manning the shop, and even taking a buggy onto the course to sell food and drink (doesn't happen everywhere, but it's a fun thing to do).
There are greenkeepers too. Early start, very early, but if he likes fresh air and doesn't mind a bit of graft that's another aspect of working at a golf club.
I've worked at three golf clubs, and good people who are smart, engaging, reliable and just get the job done are worth their weight in gold.
FInally, golf clubs are all over the country, and as I've said, they are very often looking for staff. If he's worked at one and got a decent idea of how things tick he'll be highly capable of working at any of them, so he should always be able to find a bit of local work.

Thank you for the very detailed response. He isn’t very outgoing as such so he is happy working in the kitchen rather than waitering at his weekend restaurant job.A few other notes about golf clubs whilst I'm sat with a nice glass of wine, just in case this is something that he might consider:

Their are some great suggestions that you make.
I will get him to get his arse to Shawhill, Leyland and Chorley with his CV in hand. He is reliable and a smart lad.
He did have an interview in a place over in Leyland, he came away with a promise of the job so we thought he was sorted but no info has come back. He can’t get through to the guy who interviewed him so it seems like that job isn’t happening. Like a dick he never took the interviewers name, and the HR department know nothing of it.

I'm not sure he wants his son doing gay for pay, mate.
Just look at how drone turned out.

How about medical experiments? £4k for sat on your arse for a couple of weeks taking a (probably) harmless new medicine.My lad has now finished college and is looking for temp work to tide him over till he goes to university in September.
Last thing I want is for him to be lazing around the house every day till September, however I think that is exactly what he wants to do.
Trying to find some work isn’t proving easy.
Does any of you have any suggestions / advice please.
We live in Chorley.

That sort of malicious exaggeration is what gives drone a bad name - they were only tennis ballsShooting basket balls out of his hole in a backstreet Bangkok bar.
