understandable I made my decision yesterday but its not 100% till i see teh facility and I was asking for more of opinions I guess.

900$ a week? thats 1200$ a month more then i make working 240 hours a month? but you live in ca right? so the cost of living is a good bit higher 

i really don't understand the whole "cost of living" difference. really i don't get it. maybe i'm young and dumb or whatever. but it doesn't make sense to me. i currently live in a 3 bedroom 1 bath home. sits on a 45x140 lot. (roughly). my home is 1150sq ft. price we bought it for: 73k. this same house, in california would probably be 3 times that. 

wow you would really have it rough if you had to live on what i make.  you work 3 day and make more then i make all month on unemployment.     guess i was born in the wrong damn state.

Wow $900 week for 3 days of work. 

Guess what that's $94 a week more than I make.

Of course I moved to Oklahoma from Kommiefornia in 1989 I worked as a part time lifeguard 32 hours a week and made 17.75 an hour with my CPR instructor/trainer, First aid/ Instructor trainer, WSI, emergency OB and secondary injury assement certs. In Oklahoma that level of training was worth $5 an hour. I was stunned when I got a job in retail and It was $3.50 an hour.

these are not 8 hour days Im work 3 days a week from 5 in the morning to about 9 at night.  i make so much cause my grandpa was i need of some help.

Heak for that I'll move out there and help him 

What do you do on your 4 days off? 
And you make dang good money. That's more than I made as a Pharm. Resident working up to 100hrs/week.

Goodluck with with the plans, I hope it works out for ya. Keep us posted.

I'm a machinist I spend most of the day seting up brown and sharp automatic screw machines. The rest I'm deburring cleaning and packing parts. Its not all great that money is for gas and fast track fees. I have to drive 100 miles up and then another back

i went from making anywhere from $550-$750 a week(depending on the overtime) down to barely over $600...every 2 weeks....or if you like, $300 a week on unemployment. my paycheck got cut pretty much in half. and i get paid bi-weekly now instead of weekly.   

I live on $1000 a month from SSD and six hours a week at Universal. I really don't want to hear the boo hoo's my life is terrible I live on a month what you make in a week!

WOW! is all I have to say on bitching about 900 a week!

I get 0000 a week and it freaking SUUUUUUCKS 

I'm not saying its bad but Thats around the same thing I made in two weeks at my last job and this job will only last two or three weeks and most of that goes to gas and bills. so the pay off is Im left with a few hundred dollars after the job is done. but he is cool he calls me when he needs me.

Oh and if you think that moolah is going to the negative debt on my credit score thats untrue It will be going to the cards I have now that are still open and in good standing

How many cards do you have?


Not that I care.  But, so I can laugh at a man that's swimming in debt, living off of his relatives' good will, and still has open credit cards. 


And, don't think I'm the only one laughing.  Your entire extended family knows about this one, hero.  And, family NEVER forgets financial support. 
But, even if they're great about it... look at how much guilt you have... how much explaining you're doing... the long term damage on your reputation and your psyche

And, chances are - if you ever get out of debt, you're probably gonna swing right back into it.  Argue if you want, but it's statistics.  You're smack in the middle of the bell curve.  Those open cards are a dead giveaway.  So many interesting things going on with that. 
And, it'll be great stuff for the kid.  He'll either be doomed to repeat it, or he'll make you his anti-mentor.  And, that's just charming.





Or, I could be wrong, and everything will work out hunky-dorey.  Good luck!   

all of my cards are still considered "open"......i'm waiting on my income tax return to pay them off. they were all paid until...well, you know...i'm not here to whine....   

I have no negative card dept right now most are paid off two are open the negative is from a mac tool box and sprint pcs and bank of america Im sure I can settle but I have no contact info on these people.
