John has a permanent schedule!!

Today, John finally received the phone call he's been waiting for since August. He has FINALLY been assigned a permanent shift at AMR! He's been on a float schedule since he started there last summer, and has been SO flexible. They moved him around over and over again, from county to county, and extremely early morning shifts to later ones that got him home way past his bedtime. He has worked with a ton of different partners, too. This whole time, there was one car that he really wanted– 6:30am to 6:30pm with a guy named Mike, who he really enjoyed working with. He ALMOST got it a few months ago, but it was assigned to someone else who had been hired just a few days before John. Well... This morning after having a horrible night (poor Blazers!), John received good news. Mike's partner was no longer assigned to that shift, and it was all his! So as of this Friday, he'll be back to the 4 on, 4 off schedule with a partner he loves, and who loves him (of course, who doesn't love John?!) I went through my calendars and on this schedule, he'll automatically have Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve and New Years Day off! Perfect for our first holidays with a new baby :) YAY!!!
