I worked in the garden the last two days. All day yesterday and until I had to hit the showers for work today. I'm too damn old for this shit. Last night when I was camping, I barely did two miles of slack packing. Did get lots of veggies planted.

We were up to 83F today. Down to 61F in the morning. It's drying out fast. Rain on the way Sunday. Will have to run the sprinklers if I want any of the seed to sprout before then.

My expectations of a workplace may be rather high, but then again that's the level of play I bring to all the jobs I've ever had.
One thing I absolutely won't tolerate is being berated for something out of my control.

During my out-processing from the military I was told to expect to go through 6-8 jobs before I found a good "fit".
Retired from the CG in 2K & have been with the same company since and have run the shop for the last 19 years.

I figure two things - I'm really good at what I do & I accidentally fell into the perfect job for me/them.

Not so good. poor puppers heart just couldn't keep up with him. He was of sound mind and body. Which made it much harder. It just happened one day where he wasn't acting right, later that night he was gasping for air. Lost his balance and i could tell he knew something wasn't right from the way he wanted to be with me and kept constant eye contact as if he knew. Vet said he wouldn't make it so we knew what we had to do. Uuggghh. He was just running through the field just days before:cry:

We're on the mend and little man has kept us busy, which helps.

I'm not nearly as tough as i thought I'd be.

My biggest concern is how wide spread it's use is, and the fact that crops have been genetically modified to withstand the stuff. And now Roundup Resistant Hog Weed is kicking ass and taking names. Cotton farmers are in a world of hurt. They are trying two new poisons along with RU, but it's unclear if it will work.

i don't think it's a good idea to use agriculturally...i use it on a small scale for landscaping...
nature has her own plans, and the best (?) we can do is sometimes temporarily subvert her plan, usually to our own detriment...but tell that to the asshats at monsanto
