    Olddude I hear you sir, I do. If I was ten years younger, or single, or not trying to start a family,or not trying to buy a house I would sell my car and get a truck and jump into this with both feet. But alas I need stable employment to get the mortgage loan and unfortunately they don't think that scrapping counts. My husband doesn't make enough to qualify for the loan alone.

    I am sure that I could not scrap effectively pregnant as well, lol! Not sure if I could work as a buyer in the yard environment pregnant either, but I could hope they would move me into the office when I was the size of a house.

    I have some interviews with the city line up too, so I may not jump on this job at the yard if they are not going to pay me well. I would love the opportunity to learn from them and have a better chance of making the most from my scrap in the future, whether full-time or part-time.



    Anyway, not to just throw my personal life out there, but basically just wanted to say I would LOVE to be my own boss and believe me I see the tremendous potential in the e-scrap market but I'm just not sure this is the right time in my life and marriage to pursue it.

    Thanks for all the congrats and I'll let you all know what I decide. If nothing else I will definitely continue scrapping until the right job comes along. Thanks again
