    My score on saterday

    Sorry I don't have a camera so no pics. A guy called me friday and said he was cleanning out his warehose and asked me if I wanted some scrap, of course I said yes. So I go to his place saturday mornning and he tells me that if I would help him clean up a little bit he would give me whatever I wanted, of course I said yes again. Ended up with my truck full to the top of the cab with mostly e-waste. About 7 crt monitors,25 flat screen monitors,boxes of telephones,docking stations,keyboards,server parts with high grade boards. Some boxes I don't even know whats in them yet. Then before I left he showed me three more big boxes that he's going to give me next week. Not bad for 2 hours work.

    Thanks Hobo and Mechanic for reading this thread. Needless to say I have been busy the past few weeks. Prices have come down a little but I've been getting biger loads so that makes up for the lower prices.

    'Saterday' haha . At a job interview the interviewer nicely pointed out the spelling mistake on my CV. It was typed up by someone else.....

    Weird I thought, Saturday, has a 'turd' in the middle of it..

    So where did the 'terd' come from? I think its the 'other day in the week' YesTERDay.
