New Year, new job!
Justin has worked for Brent Scarbrough for nearly 8 years and during that time construction took a big hit due to the failing economy. We were always happy that he just had a job but ever since he started driving the lowboys, about 3 years ago, it has been a huge stresser on him and the pay never went up, his work depended on the weather and we couldn't really budget since we had no idea what he was bringing home week to week:( We really wanted him to get a new job with a retirement option last August since he was turning 30 but it didn't work out. It wasn't our time and we were ok with that. I felt strongly that we needed to have something new lined up for January. He needed to have his Christmas vacation and bonus and match for his 401k. I applied for a few different jobs for him and the one that we really wanted,Sygma, called him after only 1 week! I thought they just really needed drivers but he just learned that for every 50 applicants they receive, only 1 gets hired! So we know that we are blessed that he got this job. His first day off for his vacation he had a driving test and passed with flying colors! He started Tuesday and has been in orientation all week. He should start his routes really soon. The schedule actually sounds pretty good but we will have to wait until he starts driving before we really know. Justin is a hard working and is capable of making great money with this company as well as bonuses and promotions! We are excited to get out of debt, to have family vacations, and to be able to breath a little better in 2012! And he is excited to get some toys of his own! It's hard to work 60 plus hours a week and never get to spend it on what you want.......
