This couple my ex’s I have been trying to see has been really hard do to or schedule and him having some nerve and gut issues. They work from 5 am most days to 1 or so. Some days 10 hours. They been working overtime do to people quitting. I work nights. Different days each week and it seems our days off haven’t matched. Neither of use want to ask for days off or to work these days only to we have to. With them being a hour and 20 minutes doesn’t make it easier when they get done early and I have few hours andthen I have come home to nap for work so really by the time I get there we only have hour if that.

I really do like them. They are very hard working, nice, same interest, no kids, can’t have and don’t t want any now, have there own place, and so on. Only thing sucks is they don’t have car right now because they gave it up for bills and to move to a nicer place. They can walk most places easily from we’re they live. I don’t know what do because I want this work and do they as we talked about on the phone the other day. But our schedule never seem to line up.
 
Hi Gria,
I can think of five possible solutions to your dilemma:

  • The couple changes their work schedule so that they work nights.
  • You change your work schedule so that you work days.
  • The couple moves to live closer to you.
  • You move to live closer to the couple.
  • The couple buys a car.
Which of the above would be the most doable? Which would you choose if you had a choice?

They sound like an ideal couple, I don't blame you for wanting it to work.
Sincerely,
Kevin T.
 
Me switch to days would be answer if it wasn’t for no openings were I’m at yet. When it does happen it would be second shift 3 to 11pm four or five days a week. Them getting a car would the other idea. But they gave it up because it’s helping them pay off his medical bills. Because gut issues and nerve issues he has a lot of bills. I’m not ready to move closer to them this soon being back with them. They just rented a really nice house and have Lease for while which they didn’t mind because love there place and can walk to everything. So here we are. For them working nights they would have to change jobs.
 
Sounds like you're kind of stuck with the way things are. :( I can't think of any more solutions at this time, but I may think of some in the future.
