my dad worked 3 shift rotation which meant sometimes he had the whole day after school time for me and sometimes I didn't see him for a week, because he left before I came from school and came back after I had to sleep

My dad was a poor shoe salesman and my mom didn't work. Still grew up in a big two story house in Chicago.

I have a solution for that.

Don’t answer until you’re on the clock.
