Darn it! So I did these two trucks, THE OTHER NITE! Just one color quickie. I use abour 10 bucks work of vinyl. Yada yada yada, I go back there today to pick up a check, the joint's cleaned out. And I run into a couple of guys there, guys I know, who are there to reprocess a couple of trucks. Being that they had three trucks and only two drivers, one of the reprocessed trucks is in my backyard. Let's see if I get my money because the story isn't finished yet. I know these guys and I'll find em.

I told the guys from the repocession place that if they need to get into the yard for any of the other equipment, a couple of trackers, that I know the combonation to the lock that's on the gate. Shoot, maybe I'll get in there this weekend and check the place out myself.

Nothing has the wrath more than a woman crossed!

Sic them Alicia.

Reminds me of "pulling teeth" one time. I did two 8x4s mounted in a "V" shape on 3 wooden posts in the front garden of a dental clinic.

Except for a small deposit to cover the materials, I never received final payment for over 3 months. Always some excuse or other ,,, know the story?

So very p*ssed off I went around one day, I went around with a chain saw and revved it up a few times outside.

Startled receptionist came out to see what I was doing.

"Taking MY signs back lady. It's been over 90 days and they still not paid for"

"Hold on, back in a minute"

"You got exactly 5 minutes mam"

Took her less than that to hand me a check!

Funny story like that. About 9 years ago we had a satellite tv install company that was going to set the world on fire, he was going to be the biggest in the country. Well we probably lettered about 50 trucks for the guy over about 4 years. We would come back from an install and there would be 6 new trucks in our yard unannounced that needed to be lettered. Well he always paid us up till the end when everything he had was getting repossessed he owed us $1600. So he comes strolling in one day with a van that he wants changed to say his new compnay that he is helping a friend get going and asks if we will letter the van for him even though he owes us money, we agree to do it. So 3 days go by he comes to get the van and we ask him for a check, well "I'll bring one back just let me take the van while I have a ride", we say "no", he says "wheres my van" we say "we don't know but when the bill is paid in full we will make sure your van is here ready to go."

Long story short we kept his van locked up in a storage building behind the shop for 4 months he made payments and we gave him the van back when he was done. Funny thing is when the van went in the shed it had a real nice 28' heavy duty fiberglass ladder that looks good on my truck now, we called that the storage fee and never noticed it was gone.

For some reason I'm betting that Alicia comes out the winner. There are some folks you just don't cross.

I'm really not to worried. When I find this guy, and I will, I'm not gonna mention about his two trucks getting repoed or anything. I'm just gonna get my money. And be very nice. On the other hand, he don't pay, I show up at his yard with a propane touch. It'd make a great video, anything for a laugh.
