Posted July 12, 2018 Nope not really. Last year I almost died cause my manager was on sick leave for 8 weeks during the interschools season. My newspaper was always late. Share this post Link to post

Posted July 12, 2018 My brother has been writing a newspaper with half the staff away. He did it yesterday and had to do it today with 1 less person (I believe with him it was 4 total). Though he was quite proud yesterday when he finished and got home on time to watch a livestream. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 12, 2018 Some days are better than others. It's when people don't do their work that everyone fails reaching their deadlines. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 12, 2018 That sounds rough, Spirit, but I totally get the whole 'there's no one else if I'm sick' scenario because I have that at my job, too. Depending which of my volunteers are around, if there's no me, there's no shop. And the shelter is pretty much surviving on our income since the Board has held only one fundraiser so far this year (one! for an organization that needs $3,000 a day to stay afloat! 😮 ). And, speaking of floating, yes, that was rain, @purplehaze! Aftereffects of TS Beryl. Today is bright and sunny. I hope it stays that way so we can dry out! Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and toast with jam* Share this post Link to post
Posted July 12, 2018 Lagie! *latehugs* How is the water situation there Spirit? Share this post Link to post
Posted July 12, 2018 It is slowly rising. The dam we get water from is the first one Spoiler Share this post Link to post
Posted July 12, 2018 *huggles both back* Oh wow. That's still low. Wish I could send you some of our rain. The plumber switched something in our shelter pipes so instead of the well water (free) coming from our hoses (20,000 gallons/month), it is now city water (expensive), adding a huge expense to the monthly bills.

Posted July 12, 2018 Sadly can't really share between dams... There is no pipe lines for it. Oh no! That's a big problem! Share this post Link to post
Posted July 12, 2018 What's the distance between dams? Can people sneak over with a water tanker and some buckets? Share this post Link to post
Posted July 12, 2018 Really not close at all. This is the Western Cape, and the blue specks is where our main dams are. So not close! Spoiler Share this post Link to post
Posted July 12, 2018 Yeah looks like a fair trek. Well there goes that idea. Share this post Link to post

I suspect he doesn't actually realize what he did since the last time he worked in the shelter (several years ago), we had no city water connection in the area he was fixing.

Posted July 13, 2018 Good morning, Spirit! *hugs* Where is everyone? *sets out coffee and bacon* Those smells should entice them in. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 14, 2018 hello I just came back from a probably unsaid vacation to my grandma's It wasn't that fun but I got to go to a new amusement park Share this post Link to post
Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) Hello CPA *Smiles* Long time I didn't visit here. It's too hot today. I wish I have large swimming pool for adults. Now, my body is too big to enter swimming pools for kids. Also, I wish I have a beanbag. Currently I'm into playing multiful ARPGs in Deviantart. Although I'm socially awkward. I enjoy draw my ARPG critters. But... I have some trouble with Discord chatting. I can't mingle with them well. Because I'm not an English native speaker? (Or because I'm socially awkward?) Or.. Just am I a person not appreciated to them? (While I enjoy ARPG... How about my personal OCs..??) Edited July 14, 2018 by Kyath The Dream Worker Share this post Link to post
Posted July 14, 2018 Hmmmm! Day old coffee and bacon? *sets out some muffins and fresh coffee" @Kyath The Dream Worker Hello! You are always welcome here! I have never done well in chats, either, although I never tried discord. @RainbowTheAlbinoServal Welcome back from vacation. Did you enjoy the amusement park? @Lagie I don't suppose there is any way to get the plumber to fix his mistake without having to pay him? Share this post Link to post
Posted July 14, 2018 Unlikely, @purplehaze. Bahamians never accept responsibility for their errors. *swigs some of the now lukewarm coffee and noms a muffin* Thanks! Hi, Rainbow and Kyath! Long day, it seems. I hope I'll have a chance to swim this evening. I'm melting. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 15, 2018 Ha, of course I did. The free fall drop I went on there was a little scary but hey I love it Share this post Link to post
Posted July 15, 2018 Eeps. Free fall is scary! Glad you enjoyed it. Sunday. Ahh... *relaxes for a bit* Share this post Link to post
