Yes, many flies are known to spread diseases, you are right. Not mine. They are fruit flies (not so small as the famous vinegar fly, Drosophila melanogaster)

Can't truly be angry as I saw it coming, disappointed maybe but as much at myself as the company.
So gonna take a chill for the day and relax then tomorrow its back to the races...and figuring out the next steps in my life.

Good maen everyone!
Took an extra day off. You need it, Ren (((((((((((((Renmonster)))))))))))

Yes, "my" flies are not the smallest ones. They are bigger than them but smaller than the normal domestic (black) fly.

Maen all! Busy busy.
I'll second that living in a third world country isn't great. Understatement supreme.
As for the flies Dina, you mean the ones who infect the crops and fruit on the trees? Extremely annoying, and if you don't spray your trees full of chemicals so harmful you can actually see the tumors growing, you'll lose most of it.

Nah, I give myself too much time and I'll end up wallowing in debt and despair which is SUPER non-productive.
I've updated my resume, my LinkedIn profile and applied for unemployment already and all before 6:30am!

If you were missing work because of your eye, that's not really your fault. But anyway, good luck Ren, you'll land on your feet n_n .

@Dina: Bigger o_o? How much bigger are we talking o_o?

@Crate: And people wonder why I eat junk food -_- .

It wasn't really a case of missing work, the days I did take off to my Eye I had medical days for so lost nothing.
Most of what I got dinged on was for being late back from breaks. Wasn't a deliberate thing, I either got distracted
or did not know about the lag in the time-clock system (At least that was the issue the first few weeks.). ADD is a
bitch...8P

Hi everyone! I'll promise I'll answer the fly questions tomorrow, I am just too tired to say more than "I am ok, I hope everyone is well, I am crossing fingers for Ren and Otlan finding good jobs".
(((((((((everyone))))))))

Yeah, I couldn't give too much either. Due to my country finances anything in dollars is very expensive for us.
