GOT A JOB!!!! Applause

:idance: :woohooo: Cheer

(that's my bra I'm twirling!!!) :faint2:

He got a job where hubby works at the Nixon-Smiley C.I.S.D. He started on Friday, March 7th and he's working outside (maintenance) and inside (custodial work). They started him at $6.50/hr and he is happy (so are the parents!) so all is well.

During Spring Break this week, he works 8-5 and during school, after school until 5 and full time during the summer.

We had given him a choice that if he wanted to drive (he has an old pickup), then he had to get a job to pay his own insurance/gas, etc. I just thought I'd share.

YES!!! I knew I'd get another bra twirler to join me! happy1

You mark my words, one day we ladies of the prairie will be united, one and all! happy1

LOLOL!

Misti, congrats to Damis! (and to the parents!

) My son will be 18 in June, but we haven't wanted him to get a job because we felt like his grades might suffer (he has 3 A/P classes)...he's a Senior and I would hate for anything to drop at this point. But I was thinking the same thing, spring break is the perfect time for him to get a job! We may just follow your lead! Wink

Incidentally, Larry, we were sort of figuring out how much he would make and then I introduced taxes. He didn't like that a bit! grinsmiley

Oh well. I'm gonna make sure and welcome him to the real world happy1

It figures, he got a letter yesterday from school saying he will be in tutorials in preparation of TAKS for a month from Monday - Thursday from 4-5. So, I imagine during that time he will work on Fridays after school only until they are over with.

Rob: I was waiting for that comment! ROTFL

I'm still asking that! In fact, I might stop working so many hours to support that FICA guy! :haha:
