So, the hubby does computer work. More accurate, the husband works on EVERYTHING all the time...
The husband was a soldier when I met him. Basically 8-5 with weekends off...no real reason to work after hours or on the weekend...even an abundance of observed holidays.
The husband became formally educated in technology...get a piece of paper to 'able' him to do what he already does. He likes it, and he's good at it. He's also really good with people.
The husband gets a job in POS (point of sale)...fixing computers that the waiters and sales clerks use to sell stuff...the job brings the benefit of also employing classmates of the husband's... fun times...
The wife HATES the job...shady people...shady practices...shady costumers...TERRIBLE hours. Basically, a POS guy works whenever the POS has a problem...24/7 on call. Besides the shadiness, the husband loves the job.
Eventually, the husband gets a better job with a small medical company doing all tech work including POS for the diet center...until the economy crashed...so did the better job...
So...the husband begins enjoying the fruits of unemployment...while the wife becomes jealous that the husband wakes up in the same boxers he's sporting when she gets home...yet somehow, his clothes are everywhere even though there is no evidence he had moved from the couch...
The wife has amazing friends...who have, at this point, supplied opportunities for both of our jobs...
The wife receives a message from a friend stating that her husband's company is hiring a tech guy...the pay sucks...the opportunity is worth it...
The husband gets in on a ground floor opportunity as manager of...yep...POS. But, the wife thinks...he loves it, he's good at it, and it's a local company...at least the on call will be local...
So, tonight, the wife sits typing in her blog alone at home with the pups...the husband is at a not-so-local restaurant fixing a system that has been pretty much broke for the last 2 weeks...grrreat...
