Nowhere. We just bought the pipe place and the gas cards account had the old owner's name on it, so we had to close it. New gas cards hadn't came yet, so all of the trucks were running on fumes. So I grabbed a company credit card and went and filled em up.

I put $150 in diesel ($4.89/gal in IL) in the 2007 Dodge 3500 today. It had 1/4 tank left when I filled it up. Still wasn't full when I filled it up. The 2002 F-350 took $150 to fill it to the top.

I'm guessing that you either didn't work, bought a truck, or both.

Nope. Not working is the norm, it's a given. So has to involve the GF or a new truck. I'm voting on the GF.

Turds.

Picked up a contract for a $17k job with $8k of that being profit and I'll get to sub it all out and not lift a finger....could've made more profit but with my back still hurting, I don't want to chance it. Oh and it should take only two weeks max from start to finish.
Oh and the great day also include the GF.

The best part was I didn't even have to sell myself, the electrician that brought me onboard hyped my work up pretty damn good.

thanks for your blessings. The damage was way worse than we expected and I was on the cutting board for 4 hours. I'm in a great deal of pain and will be for a while. I just wanted to give yall an update and say thanks! I might be back later but now its time for more drugs and sleep. Thanks everyone!

John

Sounds as if the surgery was rough, John. Hope all tht is behind you and the recovery goes well.

Watching the British Open this morning. Went to bed early so I could get up and watch it this morning. It and teh Masters are the two top golf events of the year.

Later, going to go look at a new riding lawn mower.
