    hardest part of this is they left me in the middle of nowhere they wouldn’t even let me ride back with the other driver, I know Chicago would have available cars

    Oh, ok yeah I wasn’t thinking about your dog with you. I was gonna say... hell I’d call Greyhound and pay for your ticket home for you but... no pets. It would be a bitter cold day in hell before I left my dog somewhere. I guess I’d have to start walking lol If you have anything at all left from that company in your possession...I’d sell it or pawn it! And then me being me, I’d have to take a detour to their terminal first chance I got and prescribe a few doses of karma. Good luck, hope you make it back ok!
     
    Coffey, Tug Toy and Vampyres Thank this.

    If you are living paycheck to paycheck you should rethink your spending habits and the way you operate. Also, you need a credit card to get a rental don't you?

    I have a credit card, the problem wasn’t money at first as to why I am still stranded it was bad timing, something going on this weekend and even finding a hotel was a headache, rental cars were impossible, if they woulda let me go back to Chicago at least with the equipment it woulda been fine, Since Chicago generally has to many renta cars or cheap beaters available, they left me in Unadilla GA where getting a cab is expensive as hell, and getting a cheap car, well, that’s another story.. 5 days in a hotel room eats through cash, even eating PB and j and meat sandwiches

    Hell I almost bought a suburban with a slipping tranny just to go home, but I couldn’t get a ride 81 miles to pick it up, this right here, was because I’m getting freaking desperate, not because I’m so lay about, hell even been looking for odd jobs to earn cash while I’m here, (not hooking which seems to be the #### response on Craigslist just cause I have a woman’s name)
