Hard work

As most of you already know.....Ethan puts in long, hard hours at work (around 70-80 hours a week). I know I've complained and complained about him being overworked, he Never gets to see his kids, and I NEVER get a break. Now I want to tell you somethings that are positive about his job.
#1 He has a job! But not just any job, a job that has alot of opportunity for advancement.
#2 He works in Ogden now. It's a LONG drive for Ethan and it's been an adjustment but it's a promotion (kind of). The store in Ogden is the best and busiest in the state so if he does well there he is on his way to becoming a market manager.
#3 He loves his job!
#4 Cash America (that's Ethan company) is a Fortune 500 and is one of the few companies that is doing well, even growing!
#5 He has job security.
#6 We get amazing deals on everything!
#7 He has learned some amazing skills. He's gone to Texas twice for training. He knows just as much about jewelry as a jeweler would.
#8 Ethan does a great job at having the respect for his employes and customers. He has worked at three different stores now and he has customers that follow him wherever he goes.

We've been lucky that he's had job threw it all. It has put food on the table and a roof over our heads. I love you Ethan, thanks for all your HARD WORK!

Shannon- I give you props. Seriously, sometimes it is so hard to see the brightside of a crummy situation but I am glad you have seen it!
