I see plenty getting goodies, handouts, breaks and I am apparently a fool to keep trying to move from contract gig to contract gig.

Throw in white, male, 40ish which appears to be three automatic strikes.

Their is a rental house down the street with 2 or 3 families of Mexicans living in it. I saw a Health Dept. car there and was wondering if they were looking into the over crowding (living in the garage, etc.).

The next-door neighbor said “No - they just are there to see how things are going as they are on state assistance.”

I replied “Does state assistance cover the four nice SUV’s parked on the drive and lawn?” (1 is a Lexus, the other an Escalade, and the other two are newer Chevy’s I think).

It is 3 down.

I just hit 50.

“gig to gig”

Too many people in this field working out of their garages trying to do what I can do better, and this must be true, cause they are coming to the people I work for, who employ only ONE professional cabinetmaker.

My major fail is I don’t have a garage...

But I do have a friend who told me to quit acting the man (he is 82) and work out of HIS shop. He told me just to bring my tools... (Inside joke. His garage.)
