Hubby May Have A Job

[Janet]

He goes tomorrow to work at the Rossville School Corp. Rick will work the 2nd shift tomorrow, but don't know if he'll work Thursday or Friday. They said they wanted him to come in and see how he does. Never heard of someone doing that before, but I guess we'll see.

Great news!!! So, what will he be doing? Will he work second shift, if hired permanently?

My hubby used to work second shift - he worked 10 hours per day so he worked four days a week. We really only saw each other on his 3 days off. That was OK as I was really busy in my career at that time and worked a lot in the evenings.

So hope this works out and he likes it. Good that it's happening in time for Christmas.

[HALEY]

Good news Janet, any word on how he is doing? or to early yet?
I say a prayer for him,,,

[Janet]

Thanks all. He goes in this afternoon at 3 or 3:30...I don't remember which. He is so nervous it's making me nuts!!! He wants to like it and hope that he is hired permanently. Time will tell.

I can already tell he's definitely getting his own room and once he wakes up (yes it 9:45 AM) I will tell him so. I don't like coming home from the bus route and try to do laundry and all in the dark. Not going to happen. I need to wash our sheets so he's going to get woke up in about 20 minutes.

I have work to do around this house and he will have to have his own room so he can sleep or do whatever he needs to do out of my way. I'm used to having the days to myself and I know it's a blessing that he has a job (we think), but I'm not good at change. I hope we can get him set up in his own room by the weekend. We'll see.

im crossing my fingers for you Janet..... wish your hubby good luck before he leaves today...

[DianaB]

I hope that the job works out for Rick. I know that you've been so worried about it. Tell him "Good Luck" from me too and I'll be praying that all goes well! Keep us posted on how things go.

[Nina]

That's great! I hope it all works out.

For years, I worked the evening shift and hubby worked day shift. This worked great for us, especially when our kids were younger. However, I don't think I would have been too thrilled if HE were the one on the evening shift. It's hard when he's home, I don't seem to get anything done! lol

Good luck!

That is good news! My prayers for the best outcome. I think that's a better job than working for an auto place. It is more secure.

Sounds like you probably will have him in his own room by tomorrow morning!
That's what you wanted anyway. Isn't i funny how things work out?

[HALEY]

That's what you wanted anyway. Isn't i funny how things work out?


Judy i was thinking the same thing, Janet can finally get some sleep at night.

[donna1990]

Good news and he gets his own room.

[Janet]

Not going to happen.

Rick had made his lunch to take with him today and was just getting ready to shower when they called and said they had hired someone else. He is so down and depressed. I'm going to have a talk with him later. He is not setting a very good example for our son. I'm very upset with him for acting this way.

[DianaB]

Oh no. That's bad news. I'm so sorry and I'm sure that it's really hard on Rick. I'm sure that he was as ready to have a job as you were ready for him to. We'll just have to keep praying that a job comes open for him.

[gja1000]

Oh, Janet, I'm so sorry. Guys self esteem is so often tied closely to their job. We women have children, friends, hobbies, as well as (perhaps) a job to help us "see" who we are. I think it is really hard for guys to lose their job or career.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that something else will come up!

[Marilyn]

Oh, Janet, so sorry this did not work out!! There is bound to be something that will come available for him!! Will say a special prayer for him and you tonight.
