thank goodness

So, Rich at last has a job. Not a job in his field, or even a "real" job, but something which will enable us to pay the rent and buy food without resorting to savings, which is definitely a step up.

So he's back in retail, and not real happy about it. But at least this place is giving him $12/hr - everywhere else was paying anywhere from $6.50-9/hr, which is not really livable.

The only challenge will be not spending the paycheck at work - it's a store called Chef Central, which is like a nicer version of the kitchen dept at BB&B. But he's going to try to resist. And they do evidently give away stuff to the staff reasonable often, which might quell the urges.

Mazel Tov! to Rich. Bringing home a paycheck feels so good. And while I understand the need to bring it home in cash, what great presents you'll be giving this year! heheheh *evilgrin* (uhm yeah, just imagine that on hubby's face, I know I can't do evil....*sigh*)
