After 3 years of non-stop applying, I was finally called for a shot as a Conductor/Brakeman position for the BNSF railway.. My interview is on wednesday, and I really have wanted to work for the bnsf for a long time, now. We have a baby on the way in january, and trying to get married, (can't afford it, ) and let's face it; an annual of 28,400 won't support a family of 4 anymore like it used to. This job starts about roughly 48,300 annual, and goes up with seniority. I firmly believe that with this kind of income, I can support my family, as well as put money away for my stepson bodhi and my first son brigham, and help my mother out too.
Due to the lack of income, I've sold my recording studio, and just about everything but my 2 garage sale guitars, to keep food on the table. as a musician, I firmly believe that you don't sell your instruments. or maybe i'm just a pack-rat :)
I don't deserve such a blessing, because with the recent move to greeley, along with 50-60 hours a week of work, on top of a whole stackload of stuff, I've been pretty out of touch with God lately, as I've been more prioritized on my stress and not focusing enough on God or spending time, and for this, I ask him for forgiveness, and I am sure that If i can land this career, I'll know where i'll be working for the next 20 years, and things will start finally looking up for us financially, and eventually, i'll be able to fix my jeep and rebuild a new recording studio and actually keep it.
