but on a lighter note…

I've been talking with a local pet shop owner that I've known for a year or two, back when I was into breeding siamese fighting fish (bettas).. about getting a job at his store. I applied for work there last week, as they are short-staffed. (neither JoAnn Etc. or Michael's has called me, so my next choice was a pet store)

I called the store tonight to talk to him, to ask him if he's made a decision.. Yes, they can use my help, will probably need me to start next week sometime.

It's not really set in stone yet, but he'll call me when they want me to start working at the store.

About the only thing I'll be squeamish about having to take care of there are the tarantulas and scorpions. As of last week he only had one tarantula, and I didn't see any scorps. I let him know right up front that I don't do bugs (crickets I am ok with, I catch those in the house and toss them outside all the time). But reptiles are ok (he has quite a few snakes and lizards).

He said for the tarantulas and scorps they use tools to remove the critters when it's cage cleaning time. I guess we'll have to see what that entails before I know if it's something I'd be willing to do.

Yuck. Those two critters just give me the heebie jeebies.
