Well, I've been looking for a job because the 3 that got me my car - went out of business. Lucky me.

Well, I've grown up around horses my entire life, but been out of the game for a while because of my horrible allergies.

Now I've gotten a job offer as a coachman downtown

So, despite my allergies, should I take it?

And - does anyone have any suggestions for allergies?

What kind of allergies, how do you react.

If you just get an itch on your back, ignore it and go with it.

If you have difficulties breathing, your eyes swell and water or you get nasty rashes that might scar, don't.

Its a pollen allergy, and my eyes itch like hell, somehow my contacts misform, and all all hell breaks loose in my sinuses. Nothing that will kill me...

Its a pollen allergy,


Find someone who sells raw honey locally. Take a teaspoon of raw honey per day.

The honey must be raw and, of course, must be from bees in your area (same pollen)

I have had allergic friends say it helps a lot.

Its almost 300 bucks a day if you include the usual tips - and there are 3 hot days a week. I get any days I want. I could make enough for a new "toy" (rallycross car) in like 3 weeks

Which is why I'm considering it

Maybe you should try getting a job and saving your money I mean for long term things not for a short term goal.If you are living at home still then your parents are obviously giving you some room and board.Even if they make you pay something it is no doubt much cheaper than what you will be paying when you are on your own for a roof over your head and food etc.

I say this because you seem to be a "hobby of the week" kind of guy,Where you not saying a while back that you wanted some sort of 60's or 70's muscle car?It is fine to have fun and enjoy yourself when young but don't get into a habit that will be hard to break when you are out on your own.Take the job if you think you can do it also you may want to try simply wearing glasses while at work if you think your eyes are going to itch.I used to wear contacts in high school and I got tired of how the things felt after a whole day and I don't have any allergy problems either.

I'd try saving your money for something down the road it teaches you a good habit(many young people have very bad credit) and in long run you will also have more money to spend on what ever it is you want.

If you have the opportunity, I think you should take it, to get a platform to start.

It sounds like a decision that only you can make. As for allergies, I had the itchy eye thing for years, and then it went away, as allergies will do sometimes. It seemed like every year only one medicine would work, and the next year I had to try different ones to find out which it would be this time.

As for the job, it sounds pretty cool.

Dude, check a doctor, as most common environmental allergies are easily treated.

Then get paid.

Yeah, see an allergist. I assume the allergy is in fact to pollen, etc, and not horse dander (or whatever anyone who is allergic to horses is allergic to if anyone even is).

There are daily over the counter meds you can try like claritin (they sell generics too). Makes a big difference to me, you might just try them and see as well.

He should go to a Doc first if that works poorly and he has to buy lots of it he will get flagged by his local Sheriff as a "smurf"(person buying such products for the meth ingredients that is why you have to sign your name at the pharmacy these days)He can get something better from a doc he may need some form of eye drops then he can take the job and practice the Scandinavian Flick while giving buggy rides.
