Don't get me wrong, I make good money but living on an acreage and feeding my 3 dogs burns through my pay cheque pretty quick. Management and field personel get paid much better than I but I like not being either one of those.

How do you guys remember all these tanks? I don't remember all mine. I'm not even sure that the one I remember as my first one was really my first one.
Of course?? I had my first tank when I was 11, and my parents never sponsored my tanks. Last edited by Myka; 01-17-2014 at 12:45 AM. |
