CHEESE2009 is on a distinguished road
Default All Done!

Rain tomorrow, worked hard all day getting Thursday/Friday lawns done.

Got started on scheduled garden jobs today, worked till 8PM.

Went to McDonalds & had a laugh. 3 trucks including mine were all in line at the drive through. All lawn maintenance trucks.

I told the lady who served me, "Tell the guy behind me, Breeze lawn service says hi"

HAHAHA!


As I grabbed my burger & zoomed off.


Anyway, the day did have its negative points.

What does one do, when they deposit $2,000.00 into their bank & the machine SHUTS DOWN.

Well, I turned to the guy at the counter, 15 feet away & said, "WHERE'S MY MONEY! THE MACHINE JUST SHUT OFF!"

I had no room for patience, as it took me FOREVER to find parking. Cars were all over the place. I was nice enough to allow a man to pass through 2 cars, parked a good width apart from each other before I went through... What does he do? Parks right in my way, in a handicap zone - illegally.

I shouted at him good.

So anyway, back to being in the bank.

The guy at the counter comes over & has me wait 10 minutes as some moron smacks around the machine a little bit.

Then he says, "You have to wait in line & talk to a teller"

I say, "listen, I've got 2 guys in the truck - if I have to stay here any longer, I'll be owing them the money your machine robbed me of."

Anyway, I waited in line for TWENTY FOUR MINUTES & FIFTEEN SECONDS.

I must have sounded & looked like the most impatient person while waiting in line. Hands on the waste, tapping the feet, groaning & sighing... hahaha.

Teller: How can I help you?

Scott: Your damn machine took my money & shut itself off! Where is my money?

She asks for my cards, looks through her computer...

Teller: "It should be in your account, I see that the transaction was made & it went through"

Scott: Good, thank you. You should get someone to fix that machine, I saw someone go through the same thing I did last week! (seriously).

Teller: Hahaha, yes. Have a good day sir.

Anyway, I got my crap together & went to the truck - went back to work.

Lawn care business tips
All in all, it's better to make sure it got deposited than wait until the end of the month to realize it didn't and then what?
