Your a grown man with commitments (job) and your dad should understand.

Yeah job first, it was your first commitment. Then again girlfriends come and go when this one goes, so goes your fall job but your dad will still be your dad. Sucks donut. :D

1. Priority number one is SCHOOL. School first. Job Second.

2. Pray for rain on wednesday (that way you can study instead).

You should have told your dad when he asked you that you had already comitted to working on wed instead of wussing out. He is your Father, you should be able to tell him anything. sooner is better than later.

It may be better to ask him if you can reschedule fencing because something at school came up that you need to attend to. A little white lie may go a long way. You already have figured out that telling him that you are working at GF's dad;s farm is going to hurt his feelings. Don;t and don't get hurt working he farm either.

Read and re-read this post by Bama. are you that guy?

Tell your dad whats going on and talk to him about it. Tell him the next availble day ur off from work the two of you will get it done. Dad's always understand and he will understand that your trying to be a upstanding young man and hold a job plus go to school. Dad also knows he raised you right by staying committed to your job. This is the way my dad and I are.

You have a paying job and are scheduled to work. The fact that you are working for your girlfriend's dad is irrelevant. Your dad should understand.

lots of good advice
only you can choose
but


forthright and upfront conversation will always ensure you are the respectable person and not the one whom dreams up or dont show up because of conflicting schedules.

be the honest person, tell dad you have a commitment for work and reschedule the fence job,
iregardless of the fact the job is a girl friends dad. you agreed to perfrom certain labors in return for certain $$$.
let dad know up front,
he will understand, might be miffed maybe, but understanding.

but by all means , dont schedule things to conflict with COLLEGE and your education.
