[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 762683, member: 15032"] Hi and thanks. He did not hear back from Menards which is odd because he thought he had that one. Anyhow he is doing fine at Amazon and seems to like the fast pace. He is only on for 20 hours per week now but after 30 days can request more. Pay is good and 30 hours plus gives you fantastic benefits including 100% college reimbursement. Maybe he can get some IT certifications which can aid him in getting an IT job - even at Amazon. He said he is taking "one day at a time" and although we are DYING for him to work full time we are trying to be patient. He is TRYING to do right. He will be in apartment October 10 and we are planning to give him bare minimum to get by. I'm sure he'll be over "shopping in our pantry" which is fine. I worry about him being alone but he will have to do that at some point to grow up and grow as a person/man. I am proud of him too because I know he struggles with his addictions but he is human as we all are and I have to try to keep my anger at bay. However it is hard for me to get too close because when he fails my pain is so traumatizing that I can barely survive - I'm sure you all can relate. Right now I am thanking God for all the good in my life and praying that he gives my son the strength to stay on the right track. When he goes off it is just devastating to his life and how far he has moved in the right direction. :grouphugg: [/QUOTE]
