DS1 has a job

[JBaxter]

Why is this in the bitching post??

Cause its at a donut shop. He works 3 days a week 5-9 making the BEST YUMMIEST FRESHEST donuts on earth OH and we get them for $2 a dozen Do you know how hard it is to loose weight when you have a son handing you a warm glazed donut ( because he had just mastered the glazing machine)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will never loose these 15lbs :( :( :(

Could be worse.
He could work in a cupcake factory.
:)
But GOOD FOR HIM for having a job!!! Good parenting, mama! How long until you drop the bomb that since he has a job he gets to pay for his own car insurance? (just kidding - but it might make a good April Fools' joke!)

I worked in a donut shop in HS - it took me years to be able to eat a cold donut again.....mmmmm.....donuts.

[gatorsmom]

mmm- better you than me. I feel sinful just thinking about a warm glazed donut right now.

That really, really sucks. Too bad he is not selling newspapers or baby-sitting. No real possibility of eating the papers or the kids, LOL.

The car insurance is WHY he is working. He has his learners permit and a 99 Pasat w/125,000 miles on it sitting in my driveway. Hes pretty much and honor student & plays football so we are asking for 1/2 th car insurance.

What a mean mama! I remember how upset I was when I found out my parents expected me to pay my insurance.

(J/K, of course. :wink2: )

Jeana, I thought about you when I drove past KK today and saw the "Hot Donuts Now" sign on. Hope you are still enjoying the fruits of his labor!

See?! You're an even BETTER Mama!!!!!!
Way to teach responsibility! Too many kids in my classes think they deserve whatever they want because they exist. It'll be a harsh, harsh reality the day they are forced out of the house and have to, I don't know, pay gas, electric, water, rent, insurance bills AND taxes.
I applaud you!

Way to teach responsibility, my first job was at TCBY! I still have such fond memories of making my own sundaes, oh I mean money!
