Update on Dave and the job

Here is an update on my brother and the company. He is waiting for the official job offer. My boss has assured him (and me) that the offer is forthcoming. Dave will start working around the 22nd, after the background investigation is complete. I was grandfathered into the company when the Borg of gaming acquired us, so I did not have to go through so many investigations. I do still have to have my fingerprints taken and new license applications filled out from time to time. Now that South Dakota’s service area has been folded into the Minnesota service territory, I have to be licensed for both North and South Dakota, so I got to fill out all the regulatory paperwork again last month. It is not a big deal, but then I have documentation of every place I have been for ages for this specific reason, to simplify regulatory applications.

Dave will get used to all the regulatory documentation… eventually. Will he become accustomed to the telephone calls in the middle of the night? Oh, he will, without a doubt, though it gives me smug fulfillment to know that he can see what I have been going through for eight years. Hehe… a slightly malcontented gratification, but he will come to appreciate what a great occupation this can be, if he works it effectively. I am elated for him and wish him much success. Besides, he works for me, so it behooves me to want him to succeed. That plainly will make my life easier, too.

He's already had practice. He never knows what time I'll call him during the night:) Ashley has been teething so Dave gets her back to sleep for me! *hint* Call Uncle Dave to help during the late nights when your kids won't sleep!!hehe

Thank you so much for recommending him. He's very excited about his job and will do his very best. This job means so much to him. We've prayed for so long that God would open this up for him. I know for a fact that Dave appreciates everything you've done to make that happen. Thanks from both of us and Josh too:)
