Fixing someone else’s fuck ups
View attachment 4475651
I always hated going behind people, I’m sure most do. I used to pipe houses for gas. ( Propane) and the boss liked sending me to find and fix leaks so they would pass inspection. Mostly was other trades puncturing our pipe but sometimes was the idiot who piped it. Not sure how I always drew that straw...

I
spent the whole day looking for a house i can afford, what a pain in the ass.
i'm not a big operator like some of you guys, i help a lot of my customers out, and probably undercharge to begin with, so i make maybe 2000-2500 a month, which is more than enough for me to live on comfortably, i have very simple tastes and don't like to travel.
but after dumping 1200 into my vehicle for a new front end last month, then getting the news i have to move 2 weeks later, kind of put me on the spot.
i've got 2k saved up in three weeks, but now the problem is finding a place to spend it. i've "worked" for cash the last 13 years...so i don't have a credit record...it comes back "insufficient information"....landlords don't like that...lost one house i really wanted because of it already. most of the rentals here are 1500 a month plus...which is a little out of my range, would like to stay in the 800-1000 a month area.
the local paper has crap for ads, everywhere i look online is weird, shady, and old....
but i WILL find a place...i always do...
but it has to be at least semi private....i'm never going to quit growing and go back to the "real world"....
just cross your fingers for me...please
fingers crossed mate, it may pay to grow a bit more weed. Cash jobs are impossible to find here in construction anyways.
Im shutting my business down because you now have to report to the tax man weekly if you have under 16 people sub contracting to you. There trying to cut out all the under the table stuff here it’s pretty shit that’s the only way to make money. Plus I got offered a kick ass job and I’m sick of paying everyone but myself. I’m owed like $75k and Im sick of arguing about money

What fish/setup? Few people with tanks on here, i've always been nerdy about it

*edit @Metasynth you still have coral?
I do! I currently have a 2 gallon pico reef, mixed reef with softies, lps, and sps.

Also have a 7 gallon Nano reef with the overflow from my 2 gallon saltwater

Also still rocking my 36 gallon freshwater tank with a 2ft long pleco in it!!

Yeah, snoek is part of our DNA around the Cape and West coast.
Could not imagine a life without eating it at least once every two weeks.
Such a unique taste that nothing else could substitute. Especially the grey meat around the stomach is really good eating.
Sometimes you get the odd "meelerige" floury one and the texture is just wrong, it needs to be nice and firm almost tough at first.

It is an amazing sight at the end of May to see the pier at Lamberts bay stacked under snoek when they run.

I wish I could try it. So long as it isn’t pap and has no worms in it.
