Job Search Husband Style
Thank goodness I work full-time (just from home). Thank goodness I make plenty of money to support our family during dry spells.
My husband’s contract expires in 2 weeks. He has applied for several new contracts (this is good). He wants to use a new software and is trying to get a contract that will involve it. He could snag a job in 2 days if he would just use the other softwares he knows. But oh noooo, he doesn’t want to “give in” and “accept just any contract.”
Um, hu? Give in? To an actual job offer? Interesting concept.
No honey, don’t you dare give in to a job offer. It really is much more important for you to use that software than to have a JOB. Hey, use the software at home if you want–just make sure that you don’t take a job unless you get to name the terms. No problem–we actually don’t really need things like food or an apartment–but you DO need to use this software, and not the other softwares you know.
That’s all. I need to go work now–somebody around here has to be willing to just “give in” and take the work we get. By the way, are all husbands this picky? Don’t most guys just take contracts if they are offered one?
