Done it again
I don't know why, but I have this ability of pissin folks off.
This time................... As many of you know, I chose to take retirement and Social Security at age 62 in 2010. In 2011, I was extremely lucky to sell a larage portion of my ranch to include the main house, horse barns, cowbarns, well house and a couple water tanks (Northeners call them ponds). That paid off all my mortages, equipment loans, and other outstanding personal loans. Since then, I've found that the SSA check doesn't meet all the expenses. I still run horses, calves, and a ranch operation. So I've fallen back onto expertice. I've a dozer, heavy tractors and trucks/trailers, bush hogs, disks, plows, seed /fertilizer speaders, etc. Being retired, I advertise dozer work at $60/hr, fence line work at $35/hr, grapple clean-up at $35/hr and light grading at $25/hr. Young bucks in the area are charging 75-150$% higher in their prices. They're pissed at what I'm charging. I'm getting the work..........quality far above what these asshats are giving. A couple of them stopped by today to tell me what and where-fore. Told them to take a fucking hike. These young fucks have no idea of what we seniors have lived through and what we will do to survive. They think the world is their oyster............there was never a pearl in my life. They can kiss my fucking ass. I've done every fucking dirty job there is, from jack-hammering out urinals to digging graves. I will fucking survive, on my terms, not on the terms of piss-ant, cock-kissing, government tit-sucking, shit.

Well said sweetie. They think they can make a quick buck. Their work is probably shitty. Age, experience and wisdom are on your side. I'd hire you in a heart beat.

They need to learn that an opportunity to bid isn't a job guarantee. It sucks you have to teach them what their parents should have.

I was going to rep you for that.
Maybe they are to used to bidding on government work or projects they know people on. Its the nature of business. Some guy is always more hungry. Personally I suspect they opened a can of worms, because one guy can only eat so much. But now they just increased his appettie.

Actually I don't always have respect for elders. If you are an asshole 18, you will probably be an asshole for life. Not saying Dar is.
