Arrived to work this morning to find out that the boss/owner of the company had taken 2 of my coworkers (both fish as well) out offshore on his boat yesterday.
I was immediately butt hurt that I wasn't invited. I've been offshore with them on the companies yearly charter 2 times now and am always shooting the sh!t with them about fishing.
They went out pretty far (I forgot where) and ended up with 2 yellowfin in the 15lb range an a bonito.
I left the shop and was pretty bummed the first half of the day but soon put it past me.
I came back to shop 9 hrs later when my work load was done and was approached by one of the guys.
He took me over to warehouse 2 and showed me the ice chest of fish.
At this time I was just happy for them and was glad they got out.
You could just see how they were still in high spirits the way they talked. I know the feeling and that's what it's all about and what brings us back
Work has been brutal these last 2 weeks.
A lot more heavy lifting than usual and longer days.
My back is tore up in 2 areas and it's not muscle soreness.
I destroyed a different section of my back 15 years ago and it's never healed, just become manageable now. I walk different to this day because of it. I have no control of it.
I've been I taking 800 milligrams of IB profen (anti inflammatory) and letting the hot shower water hit my back for a period of time which helped relieve some stiffness.
The thought had crossed my mind that I may need to look into a different type of work and I'm not the office type.
I'll be doing nothing but relaxing this weekend letting my back recupe.
These beers have relieved the pain, but I do have to get up pretty slowly.
Maybe a few more that will change
Have a good weekend everyone, be kind to your body.
