    I have NEVER advocated that model...and several others on here are in the same frame of thought. If someone needs something removed, then fine, it is $X for the job. Now whether I take it to the dump or recover some of my "costs" because I had bid a lower price on the job, then that is my business.

    Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.
