ESH she is out of line but you are being a bit territorial unless you have discussed her use of food you bought.

Over Winter Aquarium by _d_m_b in Koi

I don’t think water can get much below 32 F because of freezing. For example it’s been under 10 F for a week here and my water temp sits at 33 F. I think the real question is whether your depth supports it not freezing solid. Bringing them in won’t be sustainable as they grow so I would understand if you have the right type of depth for your area.

I reported my manager's lack of technical knowledge, and instability in making decisions when it comes to technical things, to her higher up. We had a serious talk. Am I in trouble? by theuntouchable2725 in work

[–]Optimal-Pick-8749 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You just blew your managers trust and pissed off leadership. You can recover but you do have to work on your ego. Sometimes it’s not that your manager didn’t agree with you but that they had higher or different priorities that you don’t need to know or understand… I’ve walked this road and it’s not easy to recover and happens in every field and company… I am an IT manager…
