    Two jobs One kid

     

     

    My daughter was born April 19th 2006, I graduated High School June 2006. I have been working 2 jobs since August 2006.  I Originally started working full time 40 hours a week in sales at a Electrical Distributor. I wanted to move out of my parents house so I took up another job at a high end speaker store working 20-25 hours a week. I had to get more income because the mother of my daughter was not letting me see her and lawyers for some reason are not free. Every thing wad finally settled out of court and I am a part of my daughters life which was all I ever wanted from the beginning. I still work both jobs just because of child support. I told my self the more I work the less time I have to spend money. If I wasn't working every weekend I would be out blowing money at bars like  most guys my age do. I don't regret working so much. I look at being able to have 2 jobs as a blessing. Because in today's world some people can't even find one. I don't know how much longer I will be working my part time job but I don't see my self quitting any time soon. I enjoy the feeling know i am supporting my daughter and supporting my self with out any help.
