    New Scrapper from Maine

    Hello everyone, I recently been fired from my last job. No hurt feeling there. Anyway I have started scrapping and found my way to this site. I look forward to listen and learning from the pros of scrap. However I have been in the maintenance field all my life so I know metals fairly well. I refuse to work for anyone else again so all the help I can get with lead generating and networking would be helpful. Thank you all.

    Whereabouts in Maine? Welcome to SMF.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.
