We rent out an apartment that is above the parts rooms of the shop to a guy. His girlfriend comes by every once in a while and I try to go hide it act like I'm super busy working on something.
Every DAMN time it's always wanting firewood or lumber for "free or cheap". It's bad enough we all call her "free or cheap" instead of her name.
Worse part about it, this summer we hauled about 30 cords off a clearing job and someone went in and stole several cords. Bastards cut the frigging middle out of the pile too, so there was 2-3 cords worth of logs that were around 2-4ft long.
I didn't feel like spending the time to clean up the mess, was just poplar anyhow. So.. she happened to come by... hmmm.. light bulb!
We give that wood to her, even wasted time driving out there to show her. Told her it needed to be gone by the following week. "oh yeah, oh yeah, no problem, wow this is awesome, thanks"
2 weeks go by and the contractor that was doing the dirt work called to see what the deal was with the wood.
Yup, she never bothered to haul the wood off.
"Oh, sorry, I got busy" Mind you she has no job that I know of, aka, all the free time in the world. Never mind didn't have the courtesy to say anything...like "Hey I'm real sorry guys, but I'm not going to be able to pickup that wood"
We ended up having to go out there with the 2 1 tons to pick up all that ****, and I kid you not, she actually had the balls to ask if we could load it back up and drop it off at her house when she saw the wood dumped in a pile at the shop. I told her she was fawking nuts!
