Well pros and cons, but it will work out

My daughter’s boyfriend lost his job.  Now he was working for KFC part time and the way I see it he can only go up!  Now I have encouraged him to contact the health department locally because of the reason he is no longer working there, he refused to cook chicken that was discolored greenish blue.  EWW!  Can we say nasty!  Can you imagine?  He refused to cook it, the shift manager said he remember that.  He has pictures so I told him to take it to the health department.  He did the right thing in my book.  I wouldn’t of cooked it either.  So the store had to take a loss because he threw it away, that is how it goes.  That is better than hundreds of people getting sick.

Being so many people are out of work right now, he is having a difficult time finding a job.  He has had a few leads which is a pro but the con?  No benefits.  But at least its a start.  Its a job!  I told him first get a job and go from there,  then he could check into getting health insurance lead information later on.   I know it is a very scary thought not having health benefits, but right now there are some programs that will help him to get him through the rough waters.  If he can get a job, that is the most important step.  He has to stand strong and have faith.

His self esteem levels are so very low.  I pray for him a lot.  His parents well they just tear him down all the time.  Constantly, nothing he does is ever enough.  He said that my daughter has been a blessing, she has brought love and hope into his life and heart.  My hubby and I are very supportive and we encourage him.  Knocking him down isn’t what he needs right now.    He has begged us to let us let him live in our garage, he said he live in his car in our driveway!  We feel so bad for him.  He has told my daughter that when he is at our home, he feels like part of the family!  So he has a safe haven of sorts.   It will work out, a step at a time!!  But I already have my hands full with being a caregiver, my 17 yr old and my 19 yr old, and it wouldn’t be a good idea for him to live here, as they are not married.  We don’t have a spare room!  We feel bad, but our hands are tied.  So the best thing for him to do is to get on his feet and find a place of his own.  I know and have faith he can do it!
