Large drop in % of younger folks w drivers license

[Mr70]

Hired a new employee who didn't have a drivers license.He was 22.
Asked why,he said he didn't see the need for it,as well as his friends/family always gave him a ride.He walked everywhere and biked as well.One time he even mentioned driving a car was a fad...a fad?
Told him I thought he was making his life very difficult,but he was eager to prove me wrong & hired him anyway,knowing full well the times he had to come/leave work here.
After 4 weeks,he was noticeably late numerous times and even asked us if he could leave very early too.All due to his transportation.
He quit us,we didn't quit him.
