Good morning everyone. Hope it's a great Tuesday for everyone. It's going to be another busy one for me with trying to get this 75g tank emptied for pickup tomorrow at noon and I can't get the return bulkhead undone.
Have to run the step-daughter to her baby checkup again this afternoon. I don't think she's going to make it to her due date!!!

I did manage to get the following done over the weekend:
1. flood the tank a little again
2. fix the problem leading to flooding the tank
3. replace some skimmer parts
4. do homework
5. play mom since Mrs. Hop has left me
6. started to rebuild my website at www.hopsreef.com
Back at work today and I'm not happy about it.

I have a feeling I'll be going through alot of gum too ... especially during the 4 day drive home to Canada.
Maybe I'll make a game out of it and see how many cars I can hit as I throw the old pieces out the window??

I think I'm going to be stuck in the office all day. The new guy is WAY far behind on paperwork.
Thank goodness the stupervisor is gone. I got "spoken with" about a poor attitude and threatened with my job last week. Which is odd since right after that I was recognized for exemplary performance
All I know is I'm sick of this crud and am looking for a new job! Why don't any of the companies advertise the starting wages anymore? It makes surfing the want ads about nearly impossible!

I think they don't like putting the starting wages anymore 'cuz they just want to waste the job seeker's time with interviews that they'd turn down even if offered when the wages are lower than expected.
