Yesterday Daniel picked up his work uniform (slacks – check, shirt – check, shoes – too small). Today he began training for his new job at Chick-Fil-A. It’s exciting enough that this part of Washington is finally getting it’s own famous chicken restaurant, but to have it also coincide with a job for Daniel? Wonderful!
Can’t pose for pictures when I’m getting my shoes on.
We are all so pleased and proud of Daniel getting hired on the spot after his interview. It’s been several months since his last regular job ended. He’s been living off of side jobs and yard work (and driving my minivan) to pay the bills. I know he has been frustrated not to find work. How kind of the Lord to open the door for Daniel to work for such a god-honoring establishment.
It will be interesting to watch how things unfold. Daniel is a diligent, hard worker, so I know they will be glad they hired him. He’s had his afternoons and evenings mostly free for some time now; it will be a challenge to give that up for a demanding job. At the same time, I also know he’s ready for the squeeze on his empty wallet to end. He’s eager to start earning money again. Daniel has such a big heart – he is generous and likes helping others. Last month he signed up to sponsor a Compassion International child. And earlier this week he wanted to give money to AirOne’s radio fund raising drive.
That smile says I’m going off to work!
We are praying for you, Daniel! We are proud of you and are your biggest cheerleaders.
“Goooooo, Daniel!!”
Next week you’ll turn 18 AND start your new job. Wow!! Changing times. We love you!

Yes! Go Daniel! Can’t believe that our little, smiley, mischievious grandson Dan is now a 6’4″ still smiley young man about to turn 18. Grandma and I are also proud of you, and are praying that this job will not only bring in some needed cash, but that it will build your interpersonal skills as you deal with the many different types of customers on a day to day basis. We are also happy that you will be working for an employer who has taken a stand by not being open on the Lord’s Day. Yes! We say with your Mom and others, GO!!! Daniel. Love Grandpa & Grandma too.
So pleased for Daniel — and thankful to God for this job opportunity. Very excited to see what comes of this!
Go, Daniel!
So proud of you Danny boy! Can’t wait to hear all about it!
Good job, Danny! Whoot WHOOT!
I hope you find it FUN, Daniel, as well as financially rewarding! Your cousin SJ will be back at Chick-fil-A for another summer, himself, and is looking forward to it! We hope your team is a great one!
Yay, Daniel! Chick Fil A has been a good job for Josiah – wow – he’s worked there 8 or 9 years. He has been in charge of hiring for some years and homeschoolers are his favorite to hire….a plan that’s worked well for the local community. LOL
