None of yours.


I ended up walking out of my job Monday. I've been wanting to take action on this for a while but never had the time. I'm starting a landscaping/lawn care business. Going tomorrow to put a few bids in and waiting on a few calls now.

Hope everything works out for ya Matt.


Starting Monday I'll be on what we consider 2nd shift at work. 4pm-2:30am. This suits my lifestyle much better than getting up at some ungodly hour like 5am.

Thanks Randall and Ian! I've been thinking about it for a few years since I've been doing it after work and on weekends. I made more per month last year with the lawn care than I did working 40-50 hours a week at my job and that was without even really pushing it. Now I'm pushing it and it seems to be taking off, slowly but surely. I'm really hoping it works out, this is what I've always wanted.

Sounds like a good shift Ian, I'd try to stay on it as long as possible.

It's for an indefinite amount of time. Could be a month, could be however long I want it to be.

On the job one day and heard a guy just screaming in pain outside somewhere. I'll never forget that. He couldn't explain what was wrong with him at the time, -just kept going off, -screaming. One of the ambulance crew informed us what the deal was. The guy was in the passing a stone. In a porta-john.

From the sounds of things, that's gottuh hurt. Bad!
