Aramark is not employee friendly

When I was asked if I would go to Dangling Rope Marina to work I was not told that I would be accepting a demotion, a paycut, and loss of medical coverage. I was told that it was rent free, and I would get private housing. I am still being charged rent, I live in a group house, (luckily alone) and my dentist just messaged me that I'm no longer covered by Delta Dental, although payroll deductions are continuing.

I'm glad I moved quickly and got my broken tooth repaired and am I happily wearing new Oakley glasses.

Good news, bad news, and worse news

The good news is my Oakley prescription glasses are great. The bad news is my dentist predicted I'm going to live 25 more years. The worse news is my teeth are going to keep falling out, to be gone in the next 5-10 years unless I spend thousands of $ on surgeries. I start phase one in two weeks, $750 worth of a 2 hr deep root cleaning, ugh. But I've still got affordable care to help cover the expense.

Rain makes waterfalls both big and small

 T.J. gets a close up shot of a tiny waterfall






 and we could here the roar of it too.
