Colby has had a frustrating couple of weeks. He got hired at WalMart for the Christmas season and did really well as a cashier. On the Monday after Christmas they told him that they were going to keep him on even though they were letting everyone else go. He filled out some paperwork and was happy about having a job- even if WalMart wasn't his first choice. That Friday he went to work and was given his last paycheck and a termination notice. Not a good day for a young man getting married in two months. The HR director told him that they were waiting for permission from corporate to rehire the temps to permanent positions and that they would call him the next week. They didn't call until yesterday, but he was clearly relieved.
Today he had an interview at a call center that deals with people who are interested in taking online college classes. He got hired on the spot for $1.10 an hour more than he was making at WalMart. And if he does well he can increase that by $3.00 and hour with commissions.
When he came home he was happy and relaxed. He plopped down on the couch and chatted for a while. He looked so handsome that I had to grab my camera and take a few shots. Don't get me wrong. . . I am happy that Colby is getting married and moving out on his own in March, but. . . I am going to miss having my blue eyed boy around. Isn't he handsome?
