Well I start a new job Monday....I will be going back to work for a company that I worked in for about 12 years....I have been gone from that company for about 4 years now. they have been calling me for almost 6 months now trying to get me come back and be a foreman for them in the same field that I am still in today.
The company was bought out by another company and EVERYONE was given a $5.00/hour raise after the merger.......Well I will be making approx $18,000 more a year and will have a company truck to drive back and forth so the gas will be costing them...NOT ME! I will also be off work every Friday because we will be working 4 days at 10 hours a day.
Sounds great huh? Well I will be out of town, for the most part, Monday through Thursday afternoon......I will only be about 2 1/2 hours away from home though so I can drive home if the urge to seee my family gets too unbearable..........SVCKS for me because I have a 2 year old and another on the way and then my loving wife on top of the kids.
I am asking you guys for prayers for me, my wife, and my son to be able to make this conversion from me being home every night to me being home thursday through sunday night. I just want to make sure that my relationship with my family does not suffer so that we can put the cash to better use and make a better living for my family....
