| Praise the Lord! Dh was offered the job he heard about last week and will start this coming Monday. Hopefully this is where the Lord wants him planted for good. He will be making $1 more per hour (or I should say, $7 more per hour than he's making this week!) and possibly some commissions. He isn't sure when we will be qualified for medical and dental insurance (some places here make it effective after 30 days but most make it effective after 90 days - with the latter we're looking at being effective in January since it's already part way into this month and the 90 day count would start the first of next month). The amount withheld from his check for insurance will be just as high as it was going to be with the employer he's leaving. That was disappointing, but we'll have to deal with it. It's also going to be a longer drive for him each day - 62 miles round-trip (it's 31 miles round-trip right now). Gas will probably eat up all of that extra $1 per hour so we'll continue to squeak by, but we'll just have to trust in the Lord and make smart choices. I'm just so thankful that this job came to dh's attention and is officially his!!!!!!!!! |
