    Don't Talk Business in Public

    A man called me to come clean out his dad's estate stuff for various prices; a trailer load of misc. from a couple buildings. I saw him in the coffee shop in our small town and made mention that I'd be down to look it over. Another friend got in on the conversation and asked what he had. Umm...okay? The seller was willing to deal with whoever and we all ended up at the residence. Maybe I wouldn't have bought that steam cleaner for $100 like the other guy offered, or that parts cleaner for $20, but.....but......

    After the fact, the steam cleaner needed another $200 to fix the locked up electric motors. A minor consolation, but "You can use it anytime you want to" helps.



    Confidentiality and secretism is a trait that I need to learn. Well I think I already have.
