Even though I wouldn't want you to show naked pictures of me? It seems like it would be fun to grow mushrooms but I've never tried it... has anyone around here tried?
I think you and your boy would be cool apart for a little - your relationship seems perfectly stable. I say ask him if he'd be okay if you took it.
I haven't, but a friend of mine did back in the day. they grow so fast compared to waiting on herb to flower
Dream job? You have to try it. You won't be signing a lifetime contract with them. You can always quit. If you don't give this a shot, you will always regret it. If California legalizes weed, most of the profit in growing is going to be gone, due to competition.
I would grab the dream job and maybe commute to work or just come home for weekends. Even if it does not work out you will gain valuable experience in your dream field which could come in handy later in life. You seem to be in a very stable relationship and they do say "absents make the heart grow fonder" or something like that
AWWW! Little Christine's all grown up now! Or maybe not.... But who in his right mind will give one credit?
hippie trade offs come and go, as hippies tend to be quite flaky a dream job with the gov't would be hard as hell to pass up over some hippie house paradise with no jobs around it
fuck the govt job. just set up a serious grow, then after a few years you can buy your own land and stare at plants as much as you want.
You need to find a way to get this job. If you don't you are always going to wounder what would have happened. People usually regret what they did not do, more than what they did do. I hope you can make it work. Good luck.
We'll probably just live separately for awhile and see how things go. I'd be working 4 10-hour days so that would give us 3 days to be together. Lots of people who do this kind of work have to spend time away from their loved ones. And the hippie house paradise, DOES have a job that comes with it, but it is my boyfriends job, not mine. It will also bring in a lot more money than mine will.
Like I already said, we just bought some land already. And I'm not just going to say "fuck it" to what I love. Just staring at plants is not exactly the same thing as learning about and protecting rare plants all over Oregon. If I just spent my life staring at my own plants, well then, that would be pretty selfish and pointless.
I have my doubts about it's becoming totally legal, although it basically legal now anyway. Humboldt's plan if it does become legal is to become like the Napa Valley of marijuana and have tours
I think if it is something you really wish to do, you should do it. Work out with your partner how you can both make it work for each of you and try it. If in the future you need to re-evaluate the job, you can do so. Best wishes with whatever you do decide.
