Work.

Well, it had to happen sooner or later. Work sat me down today and asked that I put in an actual 40 hours/week (monkeybutts!).

Well sold our home on Friday, and we’ll close mid September. We also have an offer on another home we have, but they buyers have a high-rate mortgage company (I don’t count the $ with them till they’ve handed it to me at the closing table!).

Anyway, so, yeah, I gotta work 40 hours now! That’s not right. Nope, not right at all.

A few more weeks, and I’m in my truck, pullin’ the ol’ Ranger down Virginia way.

Maybe I’ll just get a job with the ol’ folks… You know, “hello, welcome to Wal-mart” and such.

A little vest with simley faces on it, a Wal-mart/FLW hat on. Oh yeah, I can see it now!

40 hours has always given me gas. 40 tends to shorten the fishing day as well.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll have all that I can handle and just give’m my official “adios,” drive up by Ma & Pa Slop Bass and fish till my wife makes get down to VA.

Thanks,

I understand what your saying.I havent put in 40 a week for many years an dont wanna start now

40/week . I wish that was all I had to put in a week . But then again, I have about 5 months out of a year I don’t work .

It’s all out of fun guys. My reply was derived from jealousy, not anger.

THIS THREAD MAKES ME THINK OF A QUOTE FROM HANK PARKER. I AM NOT SURE THIS IS VERBATIM, BUT IT WENT SOMETHING LIKE THIS. “IF YOU WANT TO INCREASE YOUR FISHING SKILLS BY 100%, QUIT YOUR JOB.”

TBASS

I know I hate it when it is a good fishing day and I have to head into work. I work 12hr shifts so sometimes it really bites ya. Although I do get 2 days off during the middle of the week, either a Mon & Tues or a Wed and Thurs and it is always a good time to fish. Maybe you’ll have to find a better job????? maybe only work part-time???

Ah, you “feel” my “pain.”

In regards to getting another job when I’m down there, we’ve saved enough to cover our living expenses for three months -the head-hunter that I have guarantees placement within three months.

Technically, we’ll be out of debt when I move down, so if I really had to welcome folks to Wal-mart as a job, I could do it -hell… they’ll understand fishing!

Thanks,

Well heck maybe you can work for the Wal-Mart Bass fishing contests???? Just a thought.
