my favorite local fish store isconsidering hiring me, i hope all goes right an i get the job what better way to do work while pursuing something you love

"its not considered workif youlove what you do!"

[Albino_101]

Meh I almost tried that but I figured constantly working in a fish store, I'll be sick of doing it when I get home and have to do the same things with my fish tanks.

That is great news! I hope you get the job.

nice going sean...i hope it works out for you..best of luck..

i also got a call today about a job at petco as an aquatics specialist...i go in for an interveiw on monday...don't know how long i'll last before i get fired for giving customers bad information....lol
it starts at $9.00 an hour..although i am just looking for part time work if i have to take full time , i'll do it...will help me out financially though..

[emc7]

Both of you should go for it if you can afford to work for that. Instead of complaining about bad advice, go out and give better. Good luck.

i was interveiwed for a job at an Aquarium Adventure store once...the assistant manager had never even heard of the species of fish i was breeding...i never got the job....
she was probably protecting her position.....lol

That's what I'm shooting for and I also want to setup a saltwater tank but want experience before I put money into it.

[IAoddball]

Sean, someone told me before if I could maintain a brackish tank, salt water would be easy. Brackish tanks are easy to convert to straight salt water. Just will have to change up your stock. Good luck on the job interview

Thank you appreciate all the support, main thing I guess its just equipment cost that bothers me protein skimmer hydrometer reverse osmosis system etc.

[lohachata]

well ; it looks like i'll be working for Petco..went in for the first interview today and they want me to start this coming sunday....manager is already talking about me ordering all of the fish and plants....

[sean_130]

Congrats loha,
two turtles is still undecided on if they are gonna hire me or not.

[Angelclown]

Congrats loha. I hope and pray that everything works out for you.

Awesome, John!
You know, the local Petco people are almost always asking me what kind of tank I'm going to put the fish I'm buying into, and one even wouldn't sell me any replacement fish because our water levels weren't awesome, so maybe you can get away with giving good advice and not get into trouble

[mjalex007]

You jinxed yourself.

[emc7]

The Petcos always strike me as trying to better than their rivals. Success varies. Have fun, bite your tongue and save your truthful bluntness for us. Hiring someone who can tell a malawi peocock from a peacock bass is step in the right direction.
