Back on the road. Lease purchase with JB Hunt

Id say that call from the leasing guy was comical at best. What nobody over there ever takes time off?

I thought you had leased from a company affiliated with or owned by jb?
Its gonna be a loooooooooooong lease, if they call you every time you dont make a weekly payment.

Doesnt jb make payment for you? I know at my company. When the guys on lease purchase. Take time off. Or for whatever reason dont generate enough to make their payment.
The company makes it anyway. That just puts then in a negative status. Then it comes out of their next settlement.
Sometimes guys have a big repair bill that thier maint escrow doesnt have enough to cover. Or they take extended time off.

No big deal when they get back to work. They dont have a check for a week or two or (however long it takes)to come out the whole.

 

Go the other way with the guy. Ask him where you want him to leave the truck.
He will back pedal quickly. They certainly don't want the truck back.

 

I'm a guy and I get called honey, sweetie all the time by cashiers, waitresses, nurses, etc. Doesn't bother me. I'm thinking, sometimes I'm all of those things, other times I'm a cantankerous grouch, but most of the time I'm somewhere in between. I'm only wondering how they know what mood I'm in when they address me as sweetie?

 

I don't know, you may be reading into it a bit. Some people think those words are respectful and terms of endearment. I don't know your age, but sometimes people do tend to sweeten up their speech when talking to older folks. Just go to an old folks home to see that in action. I think the song "We'll Make Great Pets" sum up how some people see the elderly. But I'm of the opinion that if words offend you, make it known respectfully, and end it right then and there, if possible.


I remember being called white 'boy' and I often wondered what they meant by that? Now we're talking some serious WTF?

 

“Hey you!” Works well enough.
