New Jobs

Well Jen finally got a job like she has been wanting to do for so long now. I guess it is a good thing since she worked 45 hours last week in 5 nights and made 840 dollars!!! Yeah and think I went to school to climb into vehicles that were upside down to work 24-72 hour shifts and make well.... DAMN SURE NOT 18 DOLLARS AN HR. lol... Yeah women definitely have room to bitch about making a 1,000-2,000 less a yr. in a corporate job than a man does. Let's think about this for a second 2,000 less a year means 40 dollars less a week... Yeah I'm sure that Paul, Dalton Lee, or Myself could go to work with Jen tomorrow and make 800 dollars next week. YEAH RIGHT......... I'm not sure about DL and teaching but I don't think there is a job out there doing what P or myself do that we could make 800 a wk. working 45 hours unless we became a chief somewhere..Hell I don't think we make 800 a wk. working a whole hell of a lot more than that.
But back to the main point at hand.. Jen is really happy and enjoys where she works (must be nice)lol...She comes home almost every night says her feet hurt and then smiles and laughs about how good of a time she had that night. Well anyway the only bad thing that we have found so far is the fact that with me working at Texas Childrens and her at this job there are going to be many times when we won't even get to see one another for 5-7 days at a time.."Yes, I know this is some peoples Idea of a dream marriage"... but Jen and I are not like that we truly enjoy being around on another. So I am now looking for a new job that I will be off nights so that we can stop paying my mom 30 dollars a night to watch the kids sleep. I am looking for some EMS job that works 12-16 hr. Shifts during the day or I might even just go to a reg. job while I am working my way through school. I really was getting tired of TCH anyway something about having to deal with nurses as your partners all shift just seemed weird. I remembered why most EMT's run into and out of an ER as quickly as possible.
We'll I guess I will let you go for now.. We are about to go walking with T.
Wish me luck with the job search...

Yeah, the whole feet hurting thing kinda goes away when I realize how much money I make that night. The only thing that sucks is that I don't get to spend as much time with Steve and Tina...I miss them soooo much!!!!

Ditto girl, It has been awful without you around! Quiet really, I am glad you are having fun though, we will come see you soon.

P will have a blast!

I hope Tif gets feeling better, she was so pitiful tonight.
