Thank you all. I am so glad to be able to have you all to share in our joy.

Thats what kept me going Harv,

I kept saying it is in Gods time not our time. When he was ready he would
give us a job. That is what got me thru this long waiting period along with
this group.

Thanks again for you all sharing in our joy. It has been a long time in
coming but oh so worth the wait. ;-)

His schedule will take getting some used to but it will work out because
that way I can schedule appts. for when he is off. So that works out really
good.

I was wrong about the insurance I guess. Just got around to reading it
yesterday and we could have Blue Cross but it is really expensive per month.
So we won't be able to afford it. So unless he gets permanent job before
June, I guess I will be out of luck.
But we will deal with that one when it happens.

Yesterday was a better day for him. The first day they worked him so hard
and so fast. Yesterday it was easier and slower.

Jo it looks like he works two days has two off, works three has three off
something like that. So it looks good.

Mary not sure about a permanent job. But they do have him scheduled in thru
June and he asked if that stops then after that and they said no it will
continue. So who knows.

Dee Tee wishing the best for you on the job front too. I know things have
been really rough for you and Bob too. My  heart goes out to you and know
that i am sending prayers and good thoughts your way.

great news
maybe you can celebrate this weekend

Awwwwww, SJ, am so very happy for both you and Jim.  This thread brought
instant tears to my eyes, but they are good tears---happy tears!!!    

This has got to be such a huge relief for the both of you!!!   Praise
God for that blessing!!!

I worked for a year or so with Manpower temps and loved the variety and
the work. Several of the jobs I was sent on I really enjoyed, but they
said I worked too efficiently and worked myself right out of  jobs.
Didn't really matter, as there were always other jobs waiting it seemed
and they always were so interesting.   I used to tell myself that if I
every got sent on a job that I really didn't like, it wouldn't be that
bad as I knew they were all temp jobs anyways.   Turns out, though, that
that is how I ended up getting my next permanent job.   The company that
I had been working for, called payed the extra fee to end the contract
and hire me on permanently.   That was so cool.   I loved working for
the temp service---if only they had paid insurance and such!

Sure hope Jim loves the job and does well.   Keep us posted and
congratulations to the both of you!!!

Hugs,

Spoke too soon again. They called him yesterday and told him then didn't
need him anymore. So much for long term temp. Two days and done. Oh wow that
really helped us alot. Now he is down in the dumps more than he was before.
But he is going to look for another job today.
