    Is anyone else having an AWESOME Monday?

    The owners here at my work have been gone for the last week and this morning i get to the office to discover the server has crashed! So, now not only are they a week behind of what is going on jobwise, they can't catch up or check their emails or anything at all. Of course the semi-photographic memory that memorizes things that don't matter to anyone is having a hard time picturing what the schedule looked like for this week....


    Anyone else want to share Monday stories?

    Yes I am having an awesome Monday, picked up a clean out job for two sheds loaded with tools and aluminum. And possibly getting a clean out job for an entire house with 2 1/2 tons of # 1 steel,in the basement. Check out my post in a day in the life of a scrapper

    I think that server went down because you were pulling parts from it.

    Im with parrothead on this one, Other then that monday was productive 9 pounds of telecom, 2 pounds of ic/eproms, and 2 computers from the trash. And gave out my number to around 20 people down at the scrap yard for buying their boards, computers, and everything electronic. Hope everyone else did something today.

    Sure, I had a good day, I picked up a 95 toyota previa and was about to scrap it at the junk yard when an anxious looking guy pulled in front of me at the scrap yard blocking the entire driveway and walked up to my truck and asked me if could buy the previa from me and i said how much? he said how does 500 sound, i said it doesn't sound good at all lol, so he went back to his car and came back with another offer, how bout 600 he said so i told the lady at the scrap yard to cancel the transaction and i followed him to the atm machine and then to his house we unloaded the van and he handed me 600 bucks and I made it out alive lol!

    When i titled the thread i was hoping for both sides of the spectrum. I was just hoping that i was taking the brunt of the bad luck system for the day. Nothing helps get me out of a slump day like hearing about someone that i like (not just the random douchebag) that is having a stroke of good luck. Sorry for the language & no sarcasm is intended in this post. (disclaimer) lol
