There are people in need of help. Charity is one of the nobler human motivations. The act of reaching into one's own pockets to help a fellow man in need is praiseworthy and laudable. Reaching into someone else's pocket is despicable and worthy of condemnation.

Re: July Location
55 you have to be strong, even almost forceful....be positive and take control of your situation...no time to moan and groan and whoa is me....get moving....and good luck.

Re: July Location
55 it is friday, get on the phone with panther and get a LIST of available truck and owners...take the weekend and call them ALL, weed through them and find one that works for you...keeping busy will lessen that stress and you will feel as if you are accomplishing something..and chances are you will!! You aren't a newbie, you have a proven track record, use it to your advantage..but do not jump on the 1st seat, talk to all available..then make the best decision for YOU!!
You can do this!!There are people in need of help. Charity is one of the nobler human motivations. The act of reaching into one's own pockets to help a fellow man in need is praiseworthy and laudable. Reaching into someone else's pocket is despicable and worthy of condemnation.

Re: July Location
Hey Chef, it's Thursday. Other than that, good post.
55, when it begins with a lie like that, what are the chances that it'll go good? I'd rent a car, put my stuff in it and head home. The idiot owner can get the truck out of the shop himself. Good advice from Chef and the Dakota Van Man.
