That glass bottle of hot sauce didn't break did it? I was worried about that.
The box was ruffed up but the bottle wasn`t broke , everything was fine, thank you so much ,I am going to try the recipe you gave me again but with shrimp this time. KJ:)
 
Well, I think it might be time for me to say goodbye to this forum. Having a reef tank is/was a dream of mine, but I don't believe it's gonna happen. People in here have been really nice, except for maybe one or two I won't mention. Maybe in the future something will change. We'll see, maybe I'll be back one day. I am glad you enjoyed the stuff KJ. Some people on here are really awesome. :)

What?? Why would you leave? Now that is no fair

Maybe it's not fair, it's becoming really to find the job I am looking for. I have applied to like fifty places. Tested at like 15, which I always pass them. Interviewed at four. I know I didn't get two of those, one they will be hiring three separate classes from. I wasn't chosen for the first class, the other two won't be chosen til next year sometime, I don't think I'll get that either. Twelve people per class, three classes makes 36 people. They interviewed 170. The fourth one I haven't heard from yet. It is an uphill battle. If a plant is hiring twelve positions, they will get 8,000 to 10,000 applications for those positions. Some plants won't even hire women for operations, and the ones that do have a much smaller percentage of women than man. Sorry, for the long rant, but I kinda losing faith in it. And if I don't get one of these jobs that means no tank. Maybe it'll happen, sometimes it might take a while but I have no excuse to give advice or make comments if I don't even have a tank.

Hope don't go
Just because you don't have a tank doesn't mean you are not a valued person.
You will jet the job when its meant to be. Have faith and stay strong!

Maybe I am overreacting. But there is at least one person here that I will press the ignore button on. This one seems to carry an attitude around in general. I don't deal with that crap.
 
Hey hope.. come on now.
PM me :-P

Big hugs!

I have a p.o. box, lol. And at long of the bad apples has had a long history here. Way longer than me or you. Louisiana has loads of chemical plants and refineries, just alot of people want those jobs, and for good reason. Lifelong career with excellent pay and great benefits and retirement. Maybe one day it'll come.

I don't wanna move to another state. People don't really leave Louisiana, all about family and tradition here. Not really so much about family to me, some of my family I love allot, some I feel like a black sheep to, but it's more tradition. Louisiana is the number that had the most residents that born there. I just not right for me to leave. This state also has the largest petrochemical industry besides Texas. I want to be an operator with a permanent steady job, no more contractor work, too many ups and downs. I am still doing construction work but around here until something finally comes around.
