A summer job

I worry, as always, that The Girl has bitten off more than she can chew for the summer...
What little we see of her shows sheer exhaustion on her part.  As a pool supervisor for the city's Aquatics Office, she works ridiculous hours, out in the heat, probably eating fast food on the run.  By the time she gets home she wants to lay on the couch, wrapped in a blankie.  So, mostly we see her upper arms...
I feel bad for her.  
She hasn't gone out a whole lot and has a tremendous amount of responsibility for a 20 year old.  
But she's making her way in this world, and I guess I have gotten her as prepared as I could...I just hope her youth, strength, and perseverance will serve her well this summer!
