Forks.

Well things are finally starting to look up. Dewayne got a job with the company he wanted to be with. The pay is amazing and he won’t have to work so far away from home. He will also have service on his cell phone on the locations that this company works on… so I won’t have to sit and wonder about him all the time! He is getting his drug test and physical this morning. Hopefully he will start on Monday!

I am still waiting to hear from Cameron Compression. I have never had to wait this long to find out if I got a job or not… the stress is killing me! I would just rather know than have to sit here wondering! But maybe it will be worth the wait. I talked to HR about their tuition reimbursement program. They put a guy through law school. How awesome is that?! I may be old and feeble by the time I get my degree… but I will have it and I won’t have spent a dime nor have one single student loan!

My last day at the Foundation will be the 20th of August. My boss decided for me. If I don’t get the job at Cameron, I will work temp jobs through Manpower until I find something permanent. The staff is taking me for my good-bye lunch on Wednesday. I am supposed to decide where I want to go. I am thinking about going to the Petroleum Club. I really don’t care much for it but it will probably be the last time I ever get to eat there. I could never afford it on my own! It’s one of those places that you have to make sure you don’t rest your elbows on the table and there are 12 different forks at your place setting: one for your salad, one for your meat, one for your veggies, one for your dessert…
