impressed: My dad worked his ass off at a job he didn't enjoy, doing back breaking work. Always amazed that he was able to do that as long as he did.

My dad always worked his ass off at a job he didn't like in order to support us, doing a lot of back breaking work as a caretaker. He even had a second job at Wal-mart for a while. I have no idea how he managed to do that sort of thing.

When you have responsibilities that you really care about, you do what you have to. I commend him. ITs hard raising a family,

Yeah, especially because we were single income. My mom homeschooled my brother and I. I think he took only a handful of sick days his entire time working, had something like 600 days saved up when he retired.

Oh wow. Ive never heard of that many sick days.

I think he got 3 weeks a year, only used like 5 days.
