Hoot Hoot! My Daughter got a Job - no more worrying! email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 93/100. ljegbers (5761)   ranked 21 out of 2,102 in daughter4 months ago

I got off the phone with my daughter and she said that she has a job starting August 1st. Here's the kicker, she never even interviewed, the just loved her resume and said that they'll be training her to close! What a responsiblity for a new employee huh?

I was so worried that she wouldn't be able to get a job till after she got back from her trip because she wouldn't be available to inverview. I'm so happy for her! She just done GOOD!

So, have you ever been worried about your young'en moving out and not being able to find a job? Were you just sick about it? We really can't afford to carry her so this was a wonderful, wonderful surprise and a load off everyone's shoulders.

Have you felt this way too about your children?

Yea LJ, that is wonderful news.

Oh I bet she is doing the happy dance.
My kids left home 100 years ago, cannot remember how I felt. happy


myLot reputation of 93/100. ljegbers (5761)   ranked 21 out of 2,102 in daughter  4 months ago

Yes, it is her. She flys out on the 4th and will come back on the 28th. This is just a huge weight! Huge!

That is great! I don't have any kids yet but we have had some major financial problems and my parents have had to help us out, which really sucks because they are having a tough time also. Now I have 2 great writing jobs online plus I have been offered another writing job and am waiting on yet another future employer to get back to me so we will finally be able to support ourselves for now on and help my mom and dad and mother-n-law out in the mean time! Things are starting to look up for us. Also my mom and dad were having really bad car troubles and only had one car, now they have 2 cars and will not have to worry about that anymore!

It feels really good when things start to look better! We have had some really tough times but it finally looks like better times ahead!:)


myLot reputation of 93/100. ljegbers (5761)   ranked 21 out of 2,102 in daughter  4 months ago

It's refreshing to hear that your family helps each other out. We try, but there are tight times here and there.


myLot reputation of 94/100. cwilson26 (1407)   ranked 976 out of 2,102 in daughter  4 months ago

Yes things are tough here and there for us also but when a family member is in need we would give our last dollar to them.:)

Isn't it maddening for you worry about everything moms, when the kids do just what you brought them up to do??? What the heck???

Im happy for you and your daughter of course.
I dont have any kids yet. But my parents are now worrying about me finding a job.
then I know their worry now.
Sometimes, their worry just pushes me to hard while I'm still studying another major. Though actually I,m capable now to get any job for my degree is enough. but it distract me when they push me a little harder.


myLot reputation of 93/100. ljegbers (5761)   ranked 21 out of 2,102 in daughter  4 months ago

I remember my college days well. I worked nights and carried a full schedule during the day and still found time to babysit a 2 year old. I know how tight money is for a college student, but still didn't want to have my parents pay for my education. I worked my tail off those years and I think I'm a stronger person for it. I know my daughter is my child - she's just like me! I don't need to worry, but I do because, as a mom, that's my job. LOL

That's fantastic news, Lj. Congratulations to your daughter. You have good reason to be proud. happy

Where does she work, and what will she be doing?


myLot reputation of 93/100. ljegbers (5761)   ranked 21 out of 2,102 in daughter  4 months ago

She is getting the last minute stuff for her Sound of America trip. She flies out on the 4th and returns on the 28th so no time in there to drive an hour and a half to do any interviews.

She still works at the same job she's had for 3 years 3 nights a week and a double shift on Saturdays. The jobs at Burger King and they want a person to close the store 6 nights a week. It's perfect because Burger King has college tuition program where you maintain good grades and they reimburse some of your college tuition if you stay with them the years your in school. She’s a good student so this is just perfect for her, plus she’s been working in the food industries for 3 years.

Oh gosh Lj when do I not feel like this? My 2 older sons have families of their own as you know. Worry is my number 2 job when it comes to them. They struggle so hard financially and I worry about if they are eating, if they have gas to go back and forth to work, if they can meet the bankruptcy payments and not lose home and cars... Worry Worry Worry. The thing is Dad and I can help out occasionally but we could never support the entire family if they fail doing so on their own. This was my biggest concern when I did that whole grand mothers rant not long ago. I suppose Lj sometimes we mothers just need to relax and let them run or fall on thier own, but let me tell you that is a very very hard thing for us to do!


myLot reputation of 93/100. ljegbers (5761)   ranked 21 out of 2,102 in daughter  4 months ago

You know, my mother always said there was not true feeling of guilty until you're a mother. I understand that now. So goes true with being worried. Not to discredit anyone else's emotions, but I think it just brought it to an all new level for me. Kisses!
