DANA: Well, I can understand that. Bobby's not the only employee at the department store who has more than one job.

LINCOLN: Wait... how many jobs do you have?

DANA: Oh, about...four?

LINCOLN & Nolan: What?!

DANA: M-my family doesn't really have that much money. At least, not since my dad got fired from his old job and got a new one. The only problem is that this one doesn't pay him as much as the previous one did. So I felt the least he deserved was a little support. So I registered for the job at the department store and got it, but it didn't pay me a whole lot. I kept searching for other opportunities, but a lot of them didn't pay much. I figured the best I could do was take enough jobs that would pay me enough money combined. Ever since then, my weeks have been pretty busy. Every Monday and Wednesday after school, I have a shift at the department store for two hours. On Tuesday and Thursday, I work as a waitress at Aloha Comrade for an hour, and I helped out here at Young Navel on Fridays for another hour. And on some Saturdays, I work with Teri at the pizzeria.

LINCOLN: Wow...I had no idea. I'll bet that must be tough.

DANA: Well, it certainly isn't easy. A lot of the time I spend at work tends to detract from my studies and assignments. And sometimes, I've stayed up pretty late at night in order to complete my homework. But between it all, I always remind myself why I'm doing this. Because I care about my family. And that helps instill confidence in myself. Besides, I'm grown pretty used to this life by now.
