Nick's Job

When Nick started his job search while he finished college, I took it for granted he would have employment in his chosen field. He had a hand full of offers, as did every student graduated in the Construction Management Program that same semester. How quickly times change. Many of those who graduated with Nick are no longer employed, friends have had to make drastic career changes, or fellow employees (and friends) in Nick's current company find themselves looking for a new job. It is not uncommon for Nick to put in 14 plus hours day, to be driving at least 4 hours a day, or to go a week without seeing his kids because he left before they were awake and home after they are in bed. I am so thankful today for a husband who has such an incredible work ethic and for the job he has to support our family.
