He was so upset, because Union Pacific won't hire him for the same reason. The BN was his only other option at being an ACTUAL employee for the railroad, which is his dream. He'll have to go back to working for a contracter company, which he enjoyed somewhat, but they don't take care of you or your family like the railroad does.
Now here's where I am a bad girlfriend. I was so sad that he was going to work for the BN, because they were going to move him out of state, and since we're not married, they wouldn't provide for me or my son to come with him. I told him that if it's his dream then he should do it, and I would wait for him, but I was still very upset. So since he's told me this tonight, I've actually felt a little relieved...
I know that's terribly selfish, and I feel so bad. I really do feel awful that he didn't get the job because it is what he wants to do, and I wanted that for him, but I'm just being a little selfish in enjoying that we'll actually be able to move in together now and stay in Denver.
i'm going to hell.
the end.
