    There is some guy in Australia that wanted to return 150 32-packs of toilet paper and 150 1-litre bottles of hand sanitizer for a refund. The store manager told him no. Guy offered to take a 30% cut on the deal. No deal. Love it.

    Yea the shelves were bare at HD this morning, they must not have got a shipment.

    We can all thank assbags like that guy for this. I'm still hoping for full economic and societal collapse as I'm ready to go full purge.
     
    WesternPlains and 650cat425 Thank this.

    How are you gonna turn in a truck and be a company driver? Turning in a truck implies you're in a truck that's not yours.

    I’m finishing a 1 year lease deal with this company. Not a purchase, just lease for a year. It’s my second one I’ve completed. I’m not gonna do another deal through them right now. They’re doing their best to entice me. I’m not gonna buy a truck through them either. They have their own dealership

    I’ll buy my own on my own. I put in 2 years leasing to get my feet wet so to speak. I understand more than I did before and what I need to do.

    I’m just gonna be a company driver for them for now and plot my next move :)
