Britney Spears' dad is working full time for her

Britney Spears' dad has been working full time overseeing the singer's affairs, new court papers show.

As a result, Jamie -- who quit his catering job in order to dedicate himself to looking after his daughter's interests -- was given $10,000 in back pay to cover the first month of his co-conservatorship of her estate, which started Feb. 1, according to the documents. He was awarded a $2,500 weekly salary beginning in March.

"The responsibilities he has assumed as conservator ... have required [his] full-time attention," says the request for 'replacement compensation'. "As a result, he has been unable to continue to his prior employment and he has lost his source of income which he needs to pay his living expenses."

Ever-since Jamie has been in control of Britney's personal and professional affairs, the 26-year-old has secured extended-visitation with her two sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, who live with Spears' ex-husband Kevin Federline.
