Now if only all of your 'clients' paid like that!!


I can only wish I had clients.


Are you SURE...'clients' means working for yourself and then getting paid on a VERY infrequent basis. Sometimes they pay right away, sometimes they pay 'later', and 'later' could mean 3 or 4 months down the road while YOU keep providing your services essentially for free!

I mostly worked for someone else when I was working, I am now retired, but did do some pc work on my own for others that mostly paid me on time. But it was frustrating when I would put in 6 hours of work and they would say 'thanks but I don't have any money this week I will catch you next month', I say 'okay' but inside am saying 'arrrgh!!'

A pretty accurate comment!

That is indeed a sad story Blurf, I always hate to read about police and fireman just doing their jobs and getting hurt by people thinking they don't have to abide by the Laws.

I saw the funeral on my way home. It was miles long, lots of flashing lights. Very sad.

Yup cops from all over the Country probably came, they tend to send groups because they want others to come to their own fallen officers funerals. I hope they put the guy away for a VERY long time, or as I am not opposed to the death penalty that would be okay too.
