Life Some advice, opinions, and cp obligatory smart ass remarks

**ShortRoundChief** · 01-14-2010, 01:48 AM

Ok, so here's the deal. Everyone here knows I'm going through a divorce, have custody of my son, and am a District manager of a certain pizza place. Problem is the hours vs. my son. Have a really strong feeling that the boss is gonna try to push a choice on me tomorrow. If that's the case, my inclination is telling him to jerk off a nazi whilest jumpin off the golden gate bridge. Advice please.

Life is too short to pick a job over family. Love trumps reason.

Hire your son. The menial labor is not too mentally taxing for a toddler and you get to spend time with him.

I believe this to be true. However, at the end of the day my main job is to provide for my child and give him a chance to be successful. So the problem I have dealing with is time with my child vs financially providing for my child.

get a job, move out of your mommas basement and you can afford to buy your own.

BTW, your draft input is reminiscent of a porn stars cock sucking gone wild video. Sure it's great when they open their mouths but the funk that drips out afterward nobody wants a part of

IMO the modern-day version of being able to provide is drastically overinflated. I grew up downright poor, I couldn't afford to go to the dentist, I never got nice clothes, and I paid for my first car which was a total beater. But there was food on the table, clothes on my back, and shelter over my head. Plus, my parents never beat me, drank a lot in front of me, or did drugs in front of me.

You'd be surprised how much a child would rather have YOU around than not. When your parents are never there, you start to wonder if they even give a crap, whether you're working for your kid or not. And even when the kid doesn't want you around, tough sh*t. Its not your job to be your son's friend. Its your job to be his parent. And that's a job that can only be done correctly by investing time into it.

Vs. losing your job and possibly custody of your child.
I don’t know your situation or how hard your soon to be ex is pushing the custody thing but now is not the time to go job hopping. A judge wants to see that you have a stable life.

This.

Diddy, I would just tell the boss that you can only work so many hours because you have a child to take care of and leave it at that. If he fires you, then its on him.

**Saulbadguy** · 01-14-2010, 08:54 AM

Choose the job. You can always have another kid.
