"All good things must come to an End"
by Well as you all know, i am a landscaper by trade. Well, actually you probably dont know or much less care what i do, but that doesnt matter... so shutup.. anyways. Up until last year, i was strictly a computer nerd. But this past spring i found myself an unemployed mooch. So to end this i started working for a local landscaping company to make ends meet.(well i really dont have many bills per say... but i wanted to buy ice cream and rent movies... so ya know)And ive been working there for about 3 months... maybe a bit more. But I was informed of a small ISP in right in my home town, and i figured i would check it out. After a AWESOME interview, if i dont say so myself, and i do..... it seemed like a nice simple tech support job that i could get with a 4 or 5 minute comute. So i decided to take it. So i have to bid goodbye to my landscaping. I really will miss the intense heat, and blistering hands, sunburn, bees, sliding down steep hills on a really expensive lawnmower totally out of control(knowing if i roll it, not only will i kill myself... but if im not dead my boss would kill me anyways), being made fun of by spanish speaking people and having NO idea what the heck they are saying, driving through morristown with a SUPER wide trailer with a truck jampacked with sweaty nasty guys who just complain about how close i came to this stupid old lady crossing NOT EVEN IN THE CROSSWALK!!!!, and last but not least my boss jon. Jon was a great boss. He always let me know how bad i was at landscaping, let my use the EXTRA crappy lawnmower so i would "get more experience", made me eat healthy EVERY DAY!!!!, and joined in on the guys who made fun of me in spanish. The beatings with the weedwacker wire were just an added blessing. No, im kidding, jon was a good boss actually a pretty all round cool guy. And i really did have fun there. So i just wanted to say thanks to jon, and i hope gets the lawns done... cause im NOT COMING IN TOMORROW... HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH ok ok im sorry... anyways... Yall have fun now.

nothing beats a 5 min. comute!! congrats!!
i think i should look into the landscaping business.. sounds like a truly worthwhile profession..... though i think id much rather sit on my ass in my dad's store playing on the computers. we have those really cool swivel chairs with the wheels on the bottom.... yeah.
We all know how much you loved your landscaping job, and it's such a shame that you had to leave the profession so abruptly.
Ha!
So how is the new job working out?
