Depends, but I work five or six days out of seven most weeks.

[payback.livejournal.com]

How many hours?

[deservesabone.livejournal.com]

Lookin' out for me now?

[payback.livejournal.com]

Is it a problem? Can I not make an estimate?

[deservesabone.livejournal.com]

Nah, it's fine. Just somethin' to notice. [not unkindly]

I'd say I work full-time. Forty hours a week or more.

[payback.livejournal.com]

I'm hardly looking out for you. I'm just crunching some numbers.

So say five days a week. Eight hours a day. Forty times six... two hundred forty a week.

Honestly, at that rate I'm not even savin' him enough money to be worth the buy in the first place.

[payback.livejournal.com]

Sam I really think you should ask him what his wage for you would be if you were free, I'm making more than double that and I'm just an attendant.

[deservesabone.livejournal.com]

All right. I'll ask.

[payback.livejournal.com]

Ask him about working it off too. It might be possible, at least to contribute to buying your own freedom. Maybe he'd make up some kind of plan with you. It can't hurt to ask.

[deservesabone.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Can't hurt.

[payback.livejournal.com]

[A small hesitation, there -] And I don't know if there's anything I can do, but...

[deservesabone.livejournal.com]

You don't have to.

[payback.livejournal.com]

But if I can.
