I can't believe it, Dad lost his job! He said that his boss said that it was because Dad didn't work hard or long enough. That is the silliest thing I ever heard! Dad works 6 days a week from 6:00am-11:00pm! He turns down lunh there so he can work longer! I can't believe his boss would say such a thing! Now Dads just selling apples for a few cents a day. I can't wait until Dad gets a new job.
