"Dad, Why Are You the Boss at Work?"

Logan asked Justin today, "Dad why are you the Boss at work?"

Justin of course did not answer him fast enough...........

So Logan asked again, "Dad why are you the Boss at work?"

Justin still did not respond quick enough.........

Logan replied, "Is it cause that's what you picked to be?"

I think at least 90% of the time Justin would like to NOT be a Boss at work...............those free candybars just aren't cutting it these days!

He would like to have just one job title, not multiple. Or at least collect paychecks for ALL his job titles..........wouldn't that be nice! (Tif understands) He would LOVE to have a 40 hour work week or heck even just have a schedule of when he is "ON" and "OFF"! I think when you are a partner in a business you are never really "OFF". He'd like to have an actual lunch break...........he NEVER comes home during the day and very rarely ever takes an actual lunch break. He just eats as he works.

He would like to just be the CFO, His Offical Title and not also be the Computer Tech (for CKC and all family members), The Car Insurance Guy (for both family and the company), The Health Insurance Guy, Business Insurance Guy, Payroll Guy, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable Guy, Fill-in Cement Batcher Guy, Guy in charge of all job bonds, The Tax guy, The guy in charge of dealing with all Audits.....both state and internal audits, The 4o1K guy and the child support guy, the guy who deals with all workmans comp issues, the list goes on and on.

We were talking the other day to some friends and the husband was asking Justin what part of CKC he was over. So Justin started naming off the things he is responsible for.........the guys response was priceless.

He said, "You do realize that you just named 9 separate full-time job titles? I sure hope you're getting 9 paychecks!".............and those we're just the things Justin could think of off the top of his head.

I am so grateful to be married to such a hard worker! It amazes me how much stress and responsibility he continually has on his plate. Yet he continues to come home and ask how he can help me with the kids or the house! Justin is not just a hard worker, but a very business savvy man. He enjoys continuing to find ways to save the family business money. He doesn't get much praise or recognition for ALL he does to make CKC the great company that it is, but he is so humble it doesn't bother him..........well most of the time!

I Love You Justin! You are AMAZING!!
