Office Work, Part Deux: Professional Mayhen

[ChickenAlgebra]

The labor inducing veggies
4 cups romaine
2 cups watercress
2 cups red cabbage
2 cups parsley

The flavor help
2 tablespoons craisins
1/4 cup thin sliced red onions
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
1 small Anjou pear chunked
1 small Gala apple chunked

Protein if you want it added in

Shake together with some balsamic or whatever dressing you like.

Should induce labor to start if you are ready more/less and the kid just is being a slacker and lazy and refusing to show up.

Anyone else want to weigh in on processing charges? They want this invoice today.

My sister and I were born with Curry Chicken.

For three people, I hardly think $90 an hour is out of line. That's only $30 per hour per person for a job NO one wants to do.

$90 - $100 an hour sounds fair.

What is nice is she really, really doesn't care. They NEED these birds to apply for the grants, and getting chickens from the lab-animal company costs them $300 per 12-week bird.


But I want to be fair.

Well, it's a crappy, awful job honestly. For 45 birds (because I forget how many you had total), for processing, my brats I mean kids charge $3 to get whole bird, $5 for broken down - so that'd be $135 - $225.

So you aren't much more than that, and what your work was is way, way nastier than what the kids do. Plus, it's like 8 bazillion degrees for you.

Heck, $100 an hour is still the cost of ONE chicken for them. Because while I may not be easily grossed out, that's still a nasty, icky job, so I'd feel no shame at all in charging what they'd pay. If they'll pay $150 an hour, go for it. You've done the work for it, you raised the roosters, you should get something from it.

Maybe, just maybe, you have like 3 extra quarts of fliud in there. I had an extra quart with #2, which the doc didnt notice on all of my ultrasounds??? He swore Danno would be 11 lbs, but I was measuring so big and weighed so much due to the extra "water"

Got me. All I know is I've got to get rid of this extra 65 lbs because my joints do NOT like it at all.

I could maybe keep 10 of it. Maybe. That's pushing it.

You'll be ok, remember about 15lbs of that will be fluid and afterbirth. Alot will be in fat reserves that get used up in breastfeeding as well. then you have the fluid loss from the post birth seepage... maybe 10 lbs to actually loose when all is daone.

I don't WANT to be logical about now......
