How are you enjoying the

business. When you say you're a student, does that mean you're still in school, and kinda interning at a

Im a LFS employee. I don't know if that is taboo or something in this forum. I have only read a few others posting-people who are also LFS employee's. Well I am not promothing them anyway. Really I work there for the discount which makes maintaining my 55gal/30gal sump/refugium and 29gal/10gal sump a lot easier. I also do frsh/saltwater tank maitenence and in the summer months I install, clean, maintain outdoor fish ponds. Like the moderator I clear around $300 a month doing this. Although in may and june when I am installing fish ponds that is much higher. That little boost is much needed as being a LFS employee is not exactly going to bump me into the next tax bracket.
My real plan is to get my fish jones taken care of, then I will work at Guitar Center and get my music jones taken care of, then it doesn't matter because all my freetime will be happily spent jamming and playing with fishies. Really though, I am pursuing my masters in expeirmental psychology (
) and day dream of being a novelist.

Hey Mike!
For 100 bonus points, can anyone name the John Wayne movie in which a fight scene suddenly ended with the words, "Have you ever been to Nacogdoches?" Second man: "No." First man: "Strange. . . "

I deliver drywall and other building supplies. I've been doing it for about a year and a half working full time. I live with my parents and all I have to pay for is my car insurance and gas, so I have a lot of extra money to spend. I'm going back to school next Tuesday actually. I'll be taking an entry level Millwright course. I'm sort of entertaining the idea of getting my certificate, working in the field for a few years then going back to school for a buisness degree and opening up my own millwright company. I hope my tank can survive through the 5 yerars of school.

Hey all!
Technology Coach for an investment bank. I communicate to people about technology, advise them on technology decisions and train them on the use of various tools. Fast paced, pretty demanding and lots of politics but usually is very fulfilling.
