make money while the snow and wind blows its good for something. if your not getting the sealant anyways then the wife would rather have you working on something that pays right? to bad about the car show!!! 2 things I love in life cars and fish. I don't think I will combine them though I will keep the fish at home and the Horsepower under the hoods

So I need to stop saying that I can order next week cause my next weeks keep getting screwed! Next week they are sending me out of town for four days. So no extra money again next week. Having to send my neighbor to do my customer's tanks. Even the new one I just got as an extra customer. So no plasma, and no tanks again next week. And nothing will get done to the tank yet again! So I need to stop telling you guys when I can do stuff, because it ain't happenin until it happens lol. Schwan's guys keep getting hurt. I don't get paid extra for this stuff. I make a salary, and that's why I do the side stuff so that I can get extra money for the things I want to do, and need to do for my fish. Thanks guys, sorry for the bad news! I can get away from the wife for a week though!

She knows I'm just picking on her. I joke around too much sometimes. I love my wife very much. I just wish she were more understanding of my fish hobby sometimes. She actually helped me a few times. So kudos to my wife for that because I honestly never expected it. She came out one night and asked if she could help. I had to show her how to do everything and where to put ever screw, and rescrew every screw, but it was honestly nice to see her making an effort. lol, she even wears a MFK t-shrit every now and then. She just says some things about my love of the fishkeeping hobby I wish she wouldn't, and there's other issues, but this isn't Dr. Phil huh? lol. So sorry if that came out wrong it was meant as a joke. Don't worry guys I love my wife til the bitter end! ;)

on another note even though work is forcing me out of town for the week I now get to go to the car show today! I'll make a thread somewhere on MFK to show off. I really like this car show. It's free for anyone to enter so you get around 500 cars of ever year make and model. It's called cruising the drag. Use to be a way for guys to show off their drag cars and after the show they would drag race down main street here in great falls. Now there's laws against that, but there are some awesome old school muscle cars there. There's also imports, lowriders, oddities, ect, but I go for the muscle cars. Mines crap so I have to live through everyone else!

LOL, I heard that !!!

sucks about work though... do you get the "over time" off at a later date? :naughty:

No such thing as overtime with schwans. You just can't be the driver of a truck for more than 60 hrs a week. Doesn't mean they can't put you in a parking lot for 12hrs on the 6th day if they want to lol. I get reimbursed for my milage, and put up in a hotel room for the week. That's all they compensate anyone.

You're telling me. How am I supposed to save up if I can't make any money on the side. I already asked the wife if I could escort some ladies out of town:naughty: for some side cash.......She said no:D. I'd probably bore them with catfish facts anyways!!! I could always offer to repair a cattle fence or two for some tips. We can earn tips on this job, but about %99 of people refuse to tip the Schwan's man. That's ok though. Gonna take a shower and head off to the carshow. What's your favorite car bass? Gonna try to find it at the show today and snap a shot for you.

Necro car shows are dope! I love some old school muscle cars. Funny you mention the muscle...I just put my baby on craigslist so I can get another daily driver so me and the gf have more than 1 car. 64 ford fairlane sports coupe w/ a ton of extra's. The car was a blast! But time to sell it and get my dream muscle car in the future....49 ford sports coupe..kinda like the 50 merc but more compact...not much just a little. CHop and drop w/ a big block!

Cant wait till you can get more time off to finish the mega tank....sounds and looks nice.
