Brutal! Really sorry to hear that. Sounded like you liked it.

Thanks man. Almost 20yr long profession, and I think this is finally what’s gonna get me to switch things up.

You should maybe try Nursery work - there are companies out there that supply plants for reclamation projects.

Funny enough, one of the few gigs I applied to while waiting to hear the news from my boss was in fact a reclamation project, helping with the large dam removal here in OR. They had filled the position already tho. But that is the kind of career pivot I’d love to make!

But, I do love me some harebrained schemes! I’m all ears if you hear of anything.

Moving back to the city will be good for me - it’s where all my people and support networks are, it’s just not what I’d prefer to be doing long term.

No more ladies currently growing unfortunately…

For me in my line of work N, K and P is always the easiest. It’s always Ca and Mg causing problems

Nice, I’m bookmarking that one!

I got this one here a while ago after hearing lots of good things, tho admittedly haven’t gotten around to reading it just yet. It’s on my short list for next up tho

Oregonian here. There’s currently over 100 fires burning across our state. 5 of them currently considered mega-fires.

Our state-level firefighters, as well as the federal-level are seriously, seriously underpaid. If you’re the letter-to-politician-writing type, please help advocate for better pay and benefits for our firefighters

For anyone else who’d like to speculate why Mr. Gaetz seems to be being treated with kid’s gloves over these allegations, I’d like to remind people who his brother-in-law is.

A decent headlamp. Flashlights are well and good, and sometimes necessary too. But if you’ve ever had to do something intricate with both hands in the complete dark, a good headlamp can be so much better in those situations
