He still has it!
I have got some really good news! We found out yesterday that he still has a job. They were supposed to interview both Tom and Chuck but never did, but come to find out Tom was given the decision whether or not he wanted to stay in the office. I am so proud of his dad (Chuck's dad... I would go ahead and use his first name, but his first name is Chuck also and to avoid confusion I will continue calling him the dad.) He finally grew that backbone and was telling Tom who Tom actually worked for -- him! The dad was also starting to get tired of this ordeal with Tom (he has actually been in trouble with the job before, but it was all left up to him to decide if he wanted to stay or not) so he told Tom that it was only 40 hours and he could not be a hand on the trucks on the weekends anymore. That was the straw that broke the camel's back, he needed the extra pay so he gave up the office job to become a full-time truck driver. Now here's the bad news. Since Chuck already has a CDL he was going to drive on the weekends, now his dad has kind of closed the door for a while on that idea. So now we were poor to begin with but we are now facing a big chunk out of his paycheck each month. Chuck says we are at the poverty level now! He also not only is in charge of the paper work and stuff but now he is also in charge of the dispatching side. But I am so happy that things worked out and he still has a job, thank you to everyone who's kept us in your thoughts and prayers!
