Budget

Speaking of money...

Scott and I had fun using the Excel program on the computer into budget chart or plan. I do not think I can be able to paste some Excel view onto this Blog. Anyhow, from what we've calculated so far, Scott will have about $1,000 a month and I will have about $840 a month. Since Scott's job is basic on per hour, mine is basic on commission, so my income varies.

My work now pays me 55% commission, since I've been working there for over three months. The $860 a month is basic on $35 per dog on 4 dogs per day on 3 times a week with 55% commission. However, if I found a second job where I can work for 24 hours per week for $8 per hour, I can earn around $768 a month, not including tax removal. Adding up the doggie and second job, I would make over $1,000 a month.

But then again, my doggie work paycheck amount varies. I may have 3 or 5 dogs some days, or some dogs cost $40 to $45 instead of $30 or $35. I can earn from $650 to $1,500, more or less, a month.

Slow Days...

My doggie work schedule will be on every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Unfortunately, my work does not have much dogs scheduled for me lately. I did not get to work on Saturday. I found out recently that I do not have dogs to do tomorrow, either. Poor gal said that not one person came in today. We supposed it must be the rain that kept them inside. If my doggie work is not working very well so far, I shall start searching for a second job...

On the bright side, today is the first day of work for Scott. I will be picking him up at 11 pm. I'm currently relaxing in Provo Library since it's closer to where he works. Though the library closes at 9 pm.... With Scott's job, he should be able to bring home $1,000 a month.

Odd Furball

I've been working for a full week at Dirty Johnson's Dog Wash, except for Tuesday when it was closed. And not to mention the cleaning maid in the morning on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Wednesday was the busiest or longest day of work. I worked from 8 am till 7 pm. Surprisingly, I wasn't exhausted at all.

Scott came to work with me everyday as well except for Monday, when he had to go run some errands, doing some job searches that is. It was nice to have Scott helping out with washing the dogs and some cleaning. While things are done or slow, he would use the internet at Blue Star Cafe to apply more jobs online or staying at work watching 24 on the laptop.

I have got interesting dogs coming in lately. A bichon missing a left-front leg. A small black poodle missing an eye. A senior yorkie missing all of the teeth. What's next...

Cleaning Maid - No More

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I was in the middle of working on the laundry when a lady appeared saying that she's doing the cleaning around the house. I texted Alisha asking her if she knows about that lady. She forgotten to tell me that both of us no longer working around their house. They couldn't afford us anymore and this lady owes them money.
Rather than being dismayed, I accept it gladly, though I'll miss working there. I was quite relief because I wasn't so sure how I can make it, climbing up the hill in a car through the snow during winter season. And it gives me more time availablity to work at Dirty Johnson Dog Wash. I left a note saying that I enjoyed working around the house and wished them Happy Thanksgiving and Christmas then left.
