Not sure what to think.... Matt's Job Choice!

So as many of you know Matt quit his job at Penske of 6 years oh a little over a month ago. He was hired on at Rush peterbilt in Buda and was taking a huge jump in to the commission life instead of an hourly wage. I was concerned because it was commission and that he would have trouble preforming enough to make a good paycheck. Of course that was not my main concern it was more of if he would be happy with a commission job. Both my brother and my father are on commission jobs so he had asked both for advice. For the first two weeks he seemed very pleased with the company and vise versa they were pleased with Matt's work. Well last week he was visiting with a friend of mine that works at a company that is across the highway. (the same type of work). My friend Josh had been talking to the main guy at the company he works for and he put in a bunch of good words about Matt, which I appreciate that he talked highly of my husband.They offered him more money but hourly wage with a commission at the end of the month if he preforms faster. Of course it is not my decision and a few have made comments saying he would do better at Rush. Matt said something to the guy at Rush and for a moment he thought that this guy would help him and make an offer to keep him because he is so happy with his work. Of course they told him that they would see what they could do to and told Matt to talk to him later that afternoon. Well the shop foreman left with out saying anything and he is not in the office today. Matt is a good worker just wants to be happy with a company and that will help him grow. Well today he decided mid morning that he will be working for the other company Vanguard. (Rush could not compete with the other company). So today he is loading his box and moving with another guy(that he has worked with before) also decided he was leaving too. I am of course blogging because I told him that it was his decision not mine and don't want to talk to anyone about it but have to get it off of my chest. Please pray that this is what God had in store for us and pray that he will be happy.

I will be so glad to hit the pool at the coast for a NICE relaxing weekend! :)
