She (more or less) successfully finished her freshman year of college last month. Moving her out of her dorm room made me feel simultaneously sorry for and mad respectful of the men and women whose job is to clean college dorms at the end of the academic year. At least PDaughter cleaned her personal sink. Her roommates? My God.
I honestly don't want to know how pubic hairs end up in a bathroom sink. |
The real world, college student edition. |
At first she thought she could simply go back to making bubble tea, which is how she spent last summer. Alas, the entire staff and management at that establishment turned over since last August (go figure), so that minimum-wage option was out.
So she weighed her options. And she decided that a) she wanted to earn more than minimum wage, b) she wanted a flexible schedule, and c) she likes driving around.
And so my daughter is now a pizza delivery person.
She works here:
Got it? |
Because maybe she'll get attacked/murdered/worse on the job. This is very unlikely, but I'm her mom, so...
Now. Her delivery area is smack-dab in the neighborhood we lived in before I got divorced, so I know it's a decent area. Mostly.
And she's currently working on her second-degree black belt in karate. That means something, right?
And, as much as I hate to admit it, she's a grown-ass woman, and if she wants to deliver pizza, that's on her, isn't it?
Me, if I were allowed. |
Anyway, PDaughter is a pizza delivery person now.
She loves it.
I'm constantly worried.
She's delivering pizza.
Comments/feedback/coping advice greatly appreciated.
I think I would be more worried about that sink. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteAnd let it be said, nay, shouted: please tip your delivery driver. And I wish PDaughter good luck on her new venture that will give her the chance to meet diverse and interesting people who are all high.
ReplyDeleteMost impotantly, are you getting a discount on pizza?
ReplyDeleteI am thinking she will be fine. My advice? Maybe, make sure she doesn't enter the homes?
