conv: My dad worked his ass off at a job he didn't enjoy_comma_ doing back breaking work. Always amazed that he was able to do that as long as he did. My dad always worked his ass off at a job he didn't like in order to support us_comma_ doing a lot of back breaking work as a caretaker. He even had a second job at Wal-mart for a while. I have no idea how he managed to do that sort of thing. When you have responsibilities that you really care about_comma_ you do what you have to. I commend him. ITs hard raising a family_comma_ Yeah_comma_ especially because we were single income. My mom homeschooled my brother and I. I think he took only a handful of sick days his entire time working_comma_ had something like 600 days saved up when he retired. Oh wow. Ive never heard of that many sick days. I think he got 3 weeks a year_comma_ only used like 5 days. cool.
