Tips

Well, the job is going very well. Tips have been great. The first and second days on the job, I made about $5 an hour in tips, popping me up over $10 an hour. Yesterday, I came away with $110 in 8 hours, which for the math inclined is $13.75 an hour, pushing me close to $20 an hour. Nice. We have been recording my tips, and doing cash deposits every day. Hopefully, we'll soon be able to get out of all the debt we've been in.

Thanks for all your prayers, as my mom quoted the other day... "Just keep swimming..."

Peace.

See there, now you'll be making more than either of us! Hey, can I borrow twenty bucks?

I'm with Ryan on the pop culture joke. Totally missed it. I was too busy looking at the photo to think about the reference . . . Foiled again!

Wow... The most that I have made in tips was 64.00 in 81/2 hours and with my hourly pay that means I was making about 14.50 an hour. I was working alone that day though and it was a killer. I felt so sore after that I am telling you I don't want to do that again.
I am saving up what I call a mommy fund. For when we are strapped for money and josh is paying the bills while I am off work. I can still go get a coffee or something without having to ask him for anything. It is already my spending money.hehe

Nice tips. Who knew hippie relatives could be so generous?

"Hey, nice tips baby!" Wow, I'm almost as filthy as House.
