yeah they pay crap, I almost quit when I found out the toys r us in cranberry was paying $11/hr for overnight stocking and wendy's was offering $10/hr in cranberry too. I'm getting paid about half of what anyone else even in pittsburgh should be getting paid for doing the same thing. Seems the smaller the data center the more they pay which makes no sense, but oh well.

Mandy is killing all my fish
I'm down to two and one of them is dying too.
She thought it would be nice to change the water out, except she didn't match the temps and used straight tap water the other day

Ouch that sucks. We use to use tap water an my one fishy lasted 8 years. I don't think fish these days can handle tap water. I want to get some more fish but i have to see what Jeff thinks. :-)

It seems some fish can handle anything and some don't. The goldfish and koi my parents have can take any kind of abuse, some of them have to be getting close to 10yrs old. These were little tiny african cichlids and they seem to be not as hardy, they are pretty picky about water quality and temp from what I've read

Responsibilities:
Technical Phone support, approx 25000 calls a month, addressing the following:
ATM network support

This company wants to hire me, they must think I'm crazy if they want me to answer the phone that much every month.



Spitzer is looking for saleman, maybe I'll go sell scions, even though I despise spitzer.

What I have (African Cichlids) are supposed to be the most colorful freshwater fish, I just like them because they are so curious, they like to watch you and they don't hide like most fish. Tetras are supposed to be easy to keep, are bright, and cheap, but seem to be scared of everything. I'll see if I can get a pic of my yellow and blue one that are left, at least they were only $2 something each.

You always have issues

Sad thing is explaining to mandy why I keep turning stuff down, I'm like yeah the job pays good, only because the job sucks and no one wants to do it. I'd rather be happy and make squat than do something you hate and make alot of money. Though I screwed up and have a job I hate and get paid squat for doing it.

Too bad it wasn't the following week or I would show. I grew up in Moon and I'm going to drive up for a visit the following week. Was hoping to see some other turbo'd tCs.

like I said
though I'll eventually talk jeremy into getting one
If I ever get a new job or save up enough mine will be supercharged, since the kit is relatively cheap.

too bad you didn't win something like that in place of the kit you won at the WV show. I think that the show they are going to have this year is going to be good. We won't have to worry about stupid crap!

I'm pretty sure they are. I 'm going to email him this week. I just talked to him this past weekend and he enjoyed all of us coming. He said it made him so happy. Yeah i'm not trusting Jeremy's GPS. But than again we have one now an it seems to work pretty damn good.
