Awww she's such a good momma. I wish you could keep Ollie.

hummy- so hubby heard back from the captain... they want him to come in next wednesday and do the second interview. i'm trying to talk him into it. i told him do what would make HIM happy. Not my dad or his dad or me. I really think if we budgeted our money better we would be okay. he'd just have to stop feeding outside animals or slow down anyway and maybe cut some things back. Sometimes you have to do those things, it's just apart of being an adult.

i do hope he goes to the interview
i agree with you, sacrifice is part of being an adult
you can't always do what your parents want, you aren't them
being happy is more important than seventy cents extra an hour

I think so too... I mean I've got another year of classes then I can go apply for a teacher's aide. We'd be making about 21 bucks an hour together... if everyone can just hold their horses for another year...

Yup they are always hiring for teacher aides.

hubby texted the captain back after me heckling him about it and asked if they would pay him more, if not he won't be able to take the job. pfft.

what he is not taking into consideration is that government jobs get cost of living raises each jan 1
they also get money for uniform/boots/etc
he's not looking at the big picture
in one year he will be making that seventy cents he is poopooing about

lol poopooing about. i dunno if they do here or not. i think he probably ruined his opportunity because he said the captain never texted back. looks like we'll be moving in the near future. :(

That's the kicker, we are buying our house. Maybe I can talk him into going to the beef packing plant instead.

it's such a shame
i wish he would give the animal control job a chance
why is seventy cents an hour such a big deal to him?

Because even with him getting 11.70 we are still struggling for money. but that's where i think we need to cut way back.

cutting back will help
and with a government/state job you get benefits
cost of living raise each january,
uniform monies for upkeep and repair
paid federal holidays for being off/holiday pay if you work
plus liking/loving your job will make family life easier on everyone
anyway, i hope he gets a second interview even with asking for more money
i hope y'all don't have to move and lose all the equity in your house and such

He hasn't heard anything back so he probably won't get a second interview. :( I think he's given up.

hummy i wish you could talk to hubby. he got a text from the captain tonight asking if he is going to make it on Wednesday. They have scheduled another part of the "hiring process", he has to take a lie detector test. i keep telling him he should just try and see what happens. he thinks if he takes the animal control job, he'll have to work part time at walmart too. i guess it's $112 less a month. like i said before if we cut the cable off, that would make up for his pay cut.

i would happily talk to him
or just let him read some of what i posted
is that $112 take home pay?
plus you will be in the work force in a year
tell him to think about it and see what happens
nothing ventured, nothing gained.
one of my friends just was accepted in the police force
he was one of the only guys who was given a lie detector test

Yeah I think it's take home, maybe not with taxes... i'm not really sure. Me and numbers don't do too well together.

I think I've got him convinced... though he still thinks he'll have to be part time at walmart.
