Less than one month before her unemployment checks run out, she has finally obtained a job. Gainful employment!
She shall work intake/placement at a private mental health agency, Team Mental Health System (TeamMHS).
They hired her even though she made it clear she was pregnant and will be taking at least 12 weeks off starting the end of July.
- Good:pays decently and it’s within her field, thereby validating all the University cla$$es.
- Bad:It is deep in Detroit, very close to Detroit Receiving Hospital; a place once famous for having had the national title for most gunshot victims in a single year.
- Well, Alright Then: It’s right next door to a police station, and the area is flooded with men in blue. In fact, the station she will be closest to is one that her father once worked at, and there are a few officers there who know her.

congratulations. and good luck
Going to work is just an excuse for laziness.
yay for the wife! although i do think that shes been freeloading WAY too long now.
your wife is so kick ass i don’t think i’d worry too much about her.
OK, i would.. but she’s still kick ass.
way to go, heather!
wwwwwWWOOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!! Congrats to Heather, now she can feel like one of the contributing. Why motherhood doesn’t, and yet it’s so much harder is beyond me.
hehe ~ wv: oryngy
Hurrah for Heather. I got a job while I was pregnant, but I did not know it until the day I started the job. Luckily I had a female boss, unusual, 33 years ago, but she understood and gave me time off when Joe was born.
SafeTinspector, sorry to bug you but I’ve just tagged you over on my site.
Micheal:I pass along your sentiments!
Gyrobo:Even more! It is the ONLY excuse for laziness! Well…that and a debilitating disease or death.
Geezer:I agree! ….but I shant tell her.
Sarah:I, of course, agree. But there are so many more people out there whose asses she must kick in order to convince the rest of them….
Trans:Right on!
RedHead:She WAS contributing. But Heather isn’t the full-time “mommy” type. She was going absolutely bonkers….some days I came home and had to separate the two of them.
Sue Lou:Since they KNOW she’s pregnant already, I doubt we’ll have trouble. I just hope it all works out.
Foot Eater: Eh? What’s that? I’ll mosey over and take a gander at your ‘tag’ in a bit.
Does this mean that you can retire and live a life of luxury?
Well, bravo, then!
You are gonna be Househusband and Soccer Dad?
It is a good deal.
Well Done it can be a worry, but there is the saying “you can’t keep a good man (or lady) down.”
Good Luck to all!
Oh btw SafeT, you’ve been tagged with this silly meme thing. Sorry old boy.

good lad.is ’shant’ a word?
Dr. E: ‘fraid not. She shall make decent scratch for a social worker type, but not sufficient to allow me to retire to the life of luxury I so desire.
RHSP:It WOULD be a good deal! Too bad it isn’t my deal.
Dr. Maroon:Thanks, and, well, off I go to answer see!
Geezer:Well, its a contraction. Shall Not = Shan’t
Hey, congratulations to heather! I didn’t know you’d managed to impregnate her again! So congratulations about that too
Sounds like it’ll be a pretty fab job, too.
Although he should be cooking me dinner, Geezer is playing a star wars republic commando 2 demo. Since I should be packing up our house, but am looking at your blog instead, I think that’s okay. Especially since he bought me some wine.
Maja:I made an announcement about the pregnancy a few months back when it came to our attention, but I haven’t been as vocal about it since…partly because I’m afraid of jinxing it.
As for you and Geezer’s collective laziness, I can only tell you that you should both go drink that damn wine.
