Sweet Job
I just got paid $42 for walking on the beach and playing Eagle Eye for a couple hours! And I’m going to continue getting paid for that for pretty much as long as I want, up to 8 years. I landed a job as a tutor/mentor/nanny to a family with three kids. The two boys are 10 and 13 years old, the daughter is developmentally disabled and 20 years old. I was a little nervous about the disability part, but I was honest about that with the parents and they seem cool with me learning as I go. Today was a “getting-to-know-you” sort of a day. I just spent a couple hours with the kids while Jan (the mom) went for a long walk. They live in a nice house and their backyard is, quite literally, the Nisqually Delta. We spent some time down there on the beach, and then played Eagle Eye (a hide-n-seek type game) in their yard. I’m pretty stoked about it. I’ll start doing it consistently when summer camps are over, in about three weeks.
