Have you ever cleaned your lfs's tanks?

[ROLLIN]

I was in there tonight, saw a few of the filters werent working and offered to get them going. The girl working said "go for it" or something like that so I went to work. I only managed to get 2 working, she said there was something wrong with them. While I was at it I decided to rinse out some of their filter pads too . I was there cleaning and frigging with filters (cleaned quite a few) for about 30 - 40 minutes, I should have got paid . I asked her if they needed any help, and she told me to bring a resume in tomorrow, so hopefully I will get to. She said she will put in a good word for me, but she doesnt even know my name. Maybe she will tell them about me cleaning their filters and theyll hire me for sure.


*Edited to add: I even got to go in an "employee's only" room and use their sink, I'll take that as a sign.

I work at a Pet Supplies Plus... They hired me when I was 15 because they needed someone else that knew fish. Then, the only had one other guy, yet he knows about 10 times more than I do about fish, he's a friggen genius. For some reason, they fired him last week, now I'm alone.


I clean our tanks about once a week, by the way...
