TGIF 8/18/2023 - Edition 114

Do you remember your first official job that wasn't babysitting? Mine was working at a lot attendant for a used car dealership where I was washing/detailing cars. It created my passion for cars and ensuring they are kept clean. This past week, my oldest daughter started at our local Chiropractic clinic where my wife and I go for adjustments. Was so proud of her professionalism in being early to work and quickly learning to be proficient in booking appointments and handling patient questions as they came in for their appointments. She also received her first paycheck that was directly deposited to her checking account ??
