Inspiring..
 

4 days after my eldest got her (long awaited) EAD she cut her foot open on a piece of glass.. it was pretty awful, and she was on crutches and couldn't drive. She was devastated to say the least, but she had me drive her around and hopped into different restaurants and stores to pick up application forms. She had 2 interviews, and got both jobs :thumbsup:

Monday night she was in agony with her wisdom teeth, and woke up yesterday with a swollen face :( Today she started both jobs, one this morning, the other this afternoon - so off she goes with her 'funny' shoe on and a swollen face, happy as a pig in sh!t - gotta admire that :wub:


Here's a pic of her foot - its pretty messed up, be warned..

Good for her - I bet you feel (justifiably) dead proud :thumbup:

It does, thanks Rebs.. although you would think it would inspire me enough to get my arse to the gym, or do the ironing.. or do something :o

Good for you Samba, you obviously did a great job raising her...some of that credit for her attitude, is definitely yours! :thumbup:

She will probably retire in three day..and sue you for forcing her into slave labor ..

Thanks ET :) - She gets alot of her attributes from me.. can't take the credit for her work ethic though.. that'll be the ol' fella :rolleyes:

Re: Inspiring..
 

You need to send her over to ABY's beauty salon for a toenail trim. :p

What a trooper. If she was nearby to me, I've got a job going & would LOVE to have a go getter like her. :)

Good on her though. She seems quite the trooper. :)
