I didn't mean you were nuts - but you asked. :) I came very close to taking a job for that company, or a franchisee/owner, but.... the guy was nuts.

ROFL!!! Quite possibly is RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!! I did request ALL Saturday's off of work, mostly because Sundays we have chuch activities and I wanted a DAY OFF!!! Of course, I'll probably sleep it away every week. Bible college, I'm in school to go into the ministry. I'll be an ordained minister of the gospel. (sounds special, but really just gives me a piece a paper to hang on the wall) lol I'm really just me, trying to share God's love with others around me.

If, as it appears, your husband is only working part time while you go insane and try to keep heads above water, make HIM take the manager's job at McDonald's.

Yes, that is part of my "madness" !!! Edit: bleeped out the rest of this post because there was nothing positive in the statements I made. I'm sorry, shouldn't have voiced my frustration.

I'm sorry for your situation but I don't see how you can keep that particular schedule and stay healthy. I just read an article about drowsy people being at higher risk for accidents and death. Perhaps your school would let you cut back to part time studies? Maybe you could acquaint your husband with the scripture teaching "if you don't work, you don't eat" and the ones about being unequally yoked. God might be opening a window for you to shove him out? There's all types of abuse and you are not biblically required to suffer a husband who doesn't cherish you or love you as he loves himself. God bless you.

LOL your nuts but we love ya!!! I could not keep my hands off the chicken nuggets.....but hey give it a shot and if you can't handle it, quit....won't be the first time someone quit fast food. But do remember you can overload a freighttrain.....and you need some time to cope or your no good to nobody. Good luck!!

Yes, youre' crazy but sometimes it takes being alittle crazy to take on what needs to be done...Been there, definately. McD's has a grilled chicken snack wrap...With the sauce on the side, it's pretty good. Just keep to the grilled chicken and not the fried and it's okay. Good luck to you and strength to endure what you'll need to or to have God open a window for you that's easier to handle...Everything for a reason, you know.

Yes, RNY worked for me but it also requires a lot of work from me!
