How to solve leeches sucking the system dry

2lazytogetup

No, not that kind.

I have aquatic worms in my water tank system in my attic drinking all the water before it flows into my shower/bath. Anyone know how i can solve this problem?

Fire and lots of it.

You must have a leak somewhere else.

If the worms are inside the tank, then it's a closed system. The water they drink must be coming out of their rear ends and back into the tank.

If there's no water coming into your shower or bath, then there's a blockage or leak between the tank and the shower. The worms aren't impacting the volume of water in the system at all.

I know it may appear too drastic to some, but have you considered getting the leeches sterilised?

That way at least the problem will solve itself with time, as opposed to them breeding and multiplying, perhaps causing infentations in your neighbours system or even further afield.

Dole needs to be on a sliding scale, cut it off after 18 months.

You know aquatic worms eat a lot of the worlds bacteria. Without them we would be a lot sicker.

Like the aquatic worm your average dolee goes a lot of good in the world. A lot of them are caring for children that would otherwise bother us or old people that would try and regale us with their stories.

They are the fabric of society ..the damn that keeps the water back.

If we made everyone go to work. Society as we know it would collapse.

I am sorry ...but you haven't thought this through.

You need them more than they need you.

Jeez , we haven't had to use the waterfire in a long time.

Could someone explain this :

Person (A) has depression or tendencies that way or other mental health issues.

Why instead of helping themselves, mindfulness, an attitude of gratitude, walking, cooking or any uplifting way of minding and taking care of themselves they take to ruminating and or ranting about those on welfare watching want others have and resenting it, imagining what others have and resenting as a coping mechanism.

Its even more puzzling when its an obviously intelligent person who must have some insight to themselves.

Maybe they want to be on welfare. Good point!

Blaming external actors for personal dissatisfaction is far easier than introspection, because it requires no action and doesn't impact the ego.

It's a form of denial and it's a really easy rabbit hole to get sucked into if you're surrounded by lots of other people who also blame external factors for their unhappiness.

I would add bleach, and leave overnight, then flush the system. Flush through the cold tap in the bathroom not through the showerhead though.

Picking the leeches of the inside of the tank one by one is great for the ould mindfulness. Pure zen.
Almost the same level of deep inner satisfaction as one might have on hanging up the phone after dobbing a chancer into the welfare people.

Resentful ruminating about what others have as a form of zen meditation interesting had not thought of that so when they do their 10 minutes they say ..'im grand off for a walk now' is that it.

Would that feeling have any connection to bullying, nastiness, resentment, feeling of superiority?

It's connected to an effective tax rate of over 50c in the euro and allocation to 'jobseekers' of a 100% bonus. Must have been some really fantastic jobseeking to get a 100% bonus.

You are paranoid. You think everyone is committing welfare fraud.

I think you are not well.

Worker bees are expendable to their companies. Most dolees aren't.

You have no value to the god of capitalism you whorship.

And your god is your perception. Which is why you hate yourself.

You have no value and are insignificant in your own eyes.

To be honest ..society doesn't give a **** about mindless worker bees. And still less about nasty ones.

If you saw all humans as having intrinsic value ...you would not hate yourself but see your humanity.

You wouldn't obsess about money and feel so poor.

AND YOU DO FEEL POOR.

And your feelings are reality ...so you are living in a kind of poverty working can't get you out of.

You see people ...as what they earn ...that is a person's value to you. And its pretty hollow.

You are not even a human being ...you are just a mark ..something people can drain money out of. And its ok ..because you have no feelings.
Or at least the above is how you see yourself.

And you might be right. I don't know if you have any other qualities to give to society.

Sadly old planet earth's Ireland.
40% income, and then USC, PRSI etc. etc. et fupping c.

Turns out every extra euro I earn is docked half. Bossman told us he was "the Taoiseach for people who get up early in the morning".
Good Lord! :eek:
We are catching up with the Cubans and Venezualans soon enough I'd say. What is their rate?

"Jobseeking" mar dhea. Could they not have the decency at least to avoid adding the insult to the injury? Seemingly not.

If you are 'unemployable' then you don't need to be a 'jobseeker'. :pac:
Doing courses or university keeps you off the live register and also keeps you from being a 'jobseeker'. :pac:
Having a few convictions or even better having a court case reported online with your name keeps you basically 'unemployable'. :pac:

See the dole is a career in itself, the man who wishes not to toil needs to hone his skills in money management, learn how to deal with welfare administration, to stay two steps ahead of them by taking advantage of educational courses to keep his payment going and to keep Turas Nua/ Seetec and Deciding officers off his back.
