Well, I was working With Pudgy changing tires out all day, very thankful for him getting me some work during the holidays. and I was also working at the local bowling alley and as a volunteer firefighter..

Seasonal work is over, so no more changing tires..
I did manage to find a good paying, full time job, with benefits.
And basically with the way the pay periods fall, I got really lucky cause I wont even miss a beat when it comes to income.
I got paid from Costco and in 2 weeks I get paid again from my new job.

I now work with firearms and I still am a volunteer firefighter.

i dont like his father enough to do that for him. he doesnt even care about his own son, he pawns him off on his grandparents.

and on top of that, he is a theif. lost a good driving job because he stole a pair of oakleys off of someones desk (at one of his stops)

we need to get like a karma thread going... anyone local to southwest baltimore got tires for sale lol

so my girl went back to work today. i am so relieved. a family of 5 on $12/hr is a hard thing to do... phew.
I really feel for you... raising a family of 3 on $60,000 w/OT a year is hard, expecially when you're trying to squirrel away as much as possible for retirement. Just got as hefty raise back in November, does make things a lot easier now. With the wife going back to work shortly, I will be able to actually refuse some OT this year

We have pretty good benefits and 401k plan. I think it takes 6 months to qualify for benefits. They pay well too.
