    I'm in charge

    I have been working a small job @ $9.00 per hour 25 hr per week even though I make more at scrap I still find good amounts just less time to sell and dismantle. For the first time no check last Fri. due to a parole mess up, check is coming tomorrow , In the past I would be bummed
    But Sat got up & got a load ready as I did sun and Monday and exceeded the $9 per hr check in the mail @ 25 hrs , I don't completely want to get into all the particulars but I feel the owner of the company was just testing to see if I was ready to be his slave as he offered me some Sat cash work wile check was on it’s way . With a feeling of confidence I said I am busy till Tuesday - - scraping put cash in my pocket fast & even picked up a 1oz silver coin . Scraping rules

    Still no check to day - hmm - well there good for it , but will hit the yard in morn to keep my independence , still admire the feeling as I remember dealing with this stuff in the past , thinking and thinking when will i get paid & trying to be nice as I'd wait .
    On the way home I found TV's made a contact at a service station who will give me scrap at a 50 50 . split fine with me as thats 50 % I did not have . Then met a street guy with a home who has tvs short to sell me under cost , My on the books Boss has got competition.
