I just took a job with my local school district. It's a Union custodial gig, I work the 2pm -10:30 shift. I had to swallow hard to take it but there are so many pluses. It's less than 5 minuets from my house, the benefits are crazy, they pay for a family health insurance plan. 4% increase each year plus merit, 3% into your pension, 12 paid holidays, 2 1/2 weeks paid vacation with a day for each year after. 18(maybe more I can't remember) sick days etc etc etc. They stress this was just to get me in the door, I figure I'll follow the path and see where it leads. Another plus is now our benefits are no longer connected to Kodak, a big relief for my wife. Yet another plus Cath is starting a reduced hour schedule at Kodak, she will be working 8am-2pm. I am still doing my furniture, painting, buying and selling just sleeping a little less, me and the missus are a team and if this helps I am all for it.
