Default What do you do to support your "addiction"?

Just wondering what everyone does for a job?

I work Oilfield/Industrial. Chemical cleaning,High Pressure washing,steaming. Lots of Plant
shutdowns and in the field work. Am in and out of town. Pays for the family and the Reef so it
works I guess.

I'm a Chippendale's dancer. I practice my routine in front of my tank.

My tanks are self sustaining. For the last 3 years I've been able to earn enough back by selling frags to pay for my systems upkeep costs. However I'm still out around $10000 in what I spend piecing it together...

This year I'm pretending to be an Apprentice Carpenter. Previously I attempted to be a business professional and got a BComm Degree. But then I learned that a first year Carpenter makes more than a new university business graduate and doesn't have to 'bend over' as much.

What do your fish think of your dancing? Out of curiosity do they swim away and hide or do they watch without fear of whatever?

*** Lance,

I hope you don't see this one.***

No, you're off the hook for this one Leah. Nothing wrong with naked dancing for the fishies. One could even partake in naked yoga for them.
