I have been feeling some pressure at home and at work this last month and a bit.
As many of you are aware, I started working for a new company on February 1st. This company is a hazardous waste recycling and disposal company on a 6 month trial basis. We deal with everything from used oil, glycol, rags to paint, acids and toxics. The biggest problem is trying to get in the door with a company. You don't have a contact name, or they like the people who are servicing them already, or if you do find the person to contact, they often wont return your call. It is quite different moving from a large well established national company of over 1,500 employees to one that has 20. I just need to keep at it is all and hope some things start to work out.
At home we woke up to a flooding basement on Monday morning. So with no idea of what to do and many hours of sucking up water with shop-vacs, we dug up the corner of our house to see if we could locate our weeping tile and hopefully where it drained to. We located it and found it broken where it connects to the drain and also discovered the drain was frozen. So after a couple of thousand dollars, we have the drain cleared but still have to fix the pipe connection.
Anyway, this has kept me quite busy and distracted and I have had to miss a couple of classes this past week. I hope things settle down over the next couple weeks and things start rolling along
