Thought I would share a story that plays over and over again in my live. I took the day off last Friday to go get some new tires on my tandem. I needed new rubber in a huge way. Don't you just love new tires ? Anyway, I purchased 10 brand new Michelin tires , Not rethreads , brand new top of the line michelin tires. I am now extremely nervous about having enough money to make the bills/eat for the rest of the month. So I Paid the bill and headed home. On my answering machine was a gentlemen needing some quick work done. Long story short and after a 22 hour day on Saturday and a 8 hours day on Sunday including all of my fuel etc....I ended up with 10 tires cost covered and an extra .59 cents of profit. I am always amazed at how things seem to work out/happen. I could not be happier to get this job just in time to cover for my new rubber. I didn't make much profit (.59) but for me its not about how much i make , its about how much I don't lose....Stupid story I know but i'm tired and bored and felt it fun enough to share with others that understand what we endure in this line of work,,,,,:usa
