A Job You Love vs. A Job That Pays Well
When talking to my kids and grandkids about career choices I always tell them that no matter what path they take.. “Jobs are given, careers are made” To make a long term career you must be willing to sacrifice. What and for how long only you can answer. There’s nothing wrong with mixing hobbies and work. As long as you learn to set and follow through with the priorities you set for yourself, you’ll have success with your life choices. And not only in a chosen career Best of luck to you Mike

How to seal the dividers in a plano box?
I just use a drop or 2 of super glue. I have boxes I’ve done 5 yrs ago and they’re still good. Also, glue a piece of corrugated shelving liner to the underside of the lid. If you turn the box upside down nothing will move out their assigned spot. Mike

What fishing knot to tie?
That knot has been called by many names over the years. “No name” by Shaw Grigsby about 10 yrs ago to the “Doubke Shindo” by Swindle and a few others. It does hold regardless of who’s name is on it now. Mike

Caring for a 10 year old with Covid
Only advice I can give is Don’t leave him alone being in isolation. Even if you have to sit, sleep and eat on the floor and talk through the key hole. Gotta keep him engaged with your normal life as much as you can. Wishing him the best. Mike

Best places on Okeechobee during this windy cold spell?
From the south end I would head to Harney Pond Canal, Uncle Joe’s Cut, 7 Mile if the water is up. There are some protected areas in Pelican Bay (I was just there) but not many. If you wanted to run to the north end @geo g is exactly right. I’m told The B.A.S.S. Nations State Championship was won up there. (I suggested to my 2nd day boater we should head that way but didn’t.
