Happy, But Uneasy
So the last few days have been the WORST DAYS EVER! Like, I don't even want to talk about it. It's like whatever can go wrong-WILL! I am surprised that Jessie and I have made it through the week without arguing. So anyway, we did get some good news though. Comcast, which Jessie applied at in September of last year, wanted him to come in and take a test for the position. So, he took it yesterday and passed. (There is one a 50% passing rate.) And he part of the 20 people that passed and got an interview. There are 15 positions. Jessie seemed real excited about the position. And I am happy for him. He needs to get out of Nabco before they fire him for not going into the apprenticeship. They have good benefits. You get free cable and internet and they pay your cell phone, give you sick days, flex days, paid holidays, and health insurance. AND he could work Sunday through Thursday or Tuesday through Saturday, or if he wanted, Monday through Friday, but I he wouldn't pick that. He wants a week day off. They also pay very well. BUT, that makes me nervous about him going to school. He still wants to do full time, and I told him if he was working full time, I would help him with his work, but I can't DO it for him. The most I could do is read the text book for him and summarize it. I could help him come up with ideas for his papers and maybe outlines, but for the most part, he has to do the work. Honestly, I think there is only one of two reasons that he wants this job. 1. My family is pushing him to work AND go to school so I can stay home. They don't think it is fair that I should have to get a job. (I mean, I don't like it, but we are supposed to be a TEAM, not "every man for himself.") and 2. He doesn't think I will ever get a job. And to be honest, I am getting a bit discouraged too...So anyway, those are my worries. I just don't want him to get burnt out on school AND full time work. We sha'll see...We always do...
