Spike got a job today! With typical lazy boy logic instead of walking down the block to turn in the fifteen applications he had actually filled out, he took a job offered to him by a friend of his father - all the way in Palo Alto.

And he has to be there at 7:30am every day.

And wear a tuxedo for a uniform.

As he works outside.

AAAHHHAAAAAAHHHAAAAAAAAHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAAAAHAAAAAAA

Am I a bad mother to think this is so funny? Seriously, this boy's life is about to turn upside down. He's been on permanent summer vacation since Circuit City went out of business. He sleeps until noon and goes to bed at 3am. Let me repeat:

AAAHHHAAAAAAHHHAAAAAAAAHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAAAAHAAAAAAA

What's the job? He's going to be a parking valet from what he told me, but after researching the company and because he's reporting to work at Palo Alto Medical Center I believe he may actually be driving one of those vans around.

If he's a valet DO NOT GIVE THIS BOY YOUR KEYS. If he's driving a van I ADVISE AGAINST GETTING IN IT.

But he's now employed. I would not take bets that this is going to last more than two weeks, because he's going to have to leave the house at 6:30am and then wear a tuxedo in this 90+ degree heat all day.

AAAHHHAAAAAAHHHAAAAAAAAHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAAAAHAAAAAAA

If he had just walked down his application he could have been working at air conditioned Jamba Juice. This is what laziness gets you.

well, at least it's a job...and i'm sure he'll quickly figure out that it's a sucky one to have to be in a tux in scorching weather. some of the kids i know are valets at some of our big, local hotels and make total bank at their p-t times. just sayin..........

Oh to be sure, I'm thrilled that he finally has a job. I just think it's ridiculous to get a low paying job that requires an hour commute EACH WAY and be stuck sweating to death all summer long when he could have been working comfortably in an air conditioned Starbucks down the street.

By the way, because he doesn't know how to drive a manual transmission, it looks like he is relegated to "traffic control" in the parking garage until he learns. I doubt there are any tips earned for that, haha.
