Ratreeper 441 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I work for a magazine about lasers, some of them are used in the oil industry which helps fill my car on the drive to work. I just want to work with dogs, even if I am just cleaning up shit and getting attacked by alsatians training in pp...but also interested in buying/selling random stuff to get a bit of extra money recently. Seem to just be buying stuff and keeping it atm though 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
