I will also toss in a hundred and handle the vehicle side of it. Nate,I can also get you hooked up to get one of your vehicles running at a great discounted price on parts and labor.look,if you need help.plenty of people on this board would probably help a brother out. Don't be too proud to except some help.you would not be the first or the last to just say,yes I could use it.

Damn cool of you guys. Like I've said Nate, its one thing having a skill and holding at for what yoi think you deserve, but having steady work experience is paramount these days. There's more competition every day. I'm not at my dream job by any means, but I know it will ultimately help me in the long run whenever I find what that dream job is. You talk about not being happy, I guarantee you'd feel better about yourself having a job and responsibility. Ill leave it alone for now. But you should feel fortunate and greatful someone would actually sticktheir neck out like these guys to try and help you move forward. Pretty amazing and rare.

Nothing wrong with having pride until it interferes with your well being. I think that level of pride your parents share is largely lost among my generation.

Once the detectives sort through the dingle berries it will be closer to ten pounds. .watch.

Nate,dude you think you have no luck? Take a wild ass guess what kind of vehicles my shop services? Subaru's for only the last 26 years.i actually am a fully factory trained Subaru tech.and those 2.5 dual cam motors you speak of I have rebuilt i would guess close to 200. So I probably know a little about Subaru's . Best all wheel drive passenger car you can buy. Bar none. So if you want you can PM me and I will give you my number and we can discuss your problems with your car. Going to bed now,but will check back in morning. Seriously,get back to me and I can and will help you out as much as I can. Dan

I met Dan on Allen's bar once upon a time. If I recall correctly, he and his pals loaned me a bigger net which came in pretty handy at the time. I remember thinking he was good people back then. Seems like maybe that thought wasn't misguided. Good on ya Dan.

Good on ya' Bustinbig. I must admit I have negative feelings toward people who won't help themselves, which seems like the track that Nate has himself on. But if this gets his ass in forward motion, I'm in. Keep us posted.

Heck, his Subaru is a year newer than mine, but mine runs fine. Always has, 'cept for the tranny repair a year and a half ago.

Some people would rather keep their excuse than take someone up on a generous solution.

Yeah, we will see. Some cool things happening here but it all rests in Nates hands. Hopefully last night wasn't just a minor glitch in his reasoning and realities.

It's your life Nate, but after sleeping on it have you decided to accept BB and Nicks help? You're a grown man and can make your own decisions, but I really think you would be doing yourself a great disservice by not at least meeting Nick and taking a shot. Once you get work, no matter how bad the job may be, it gets the ball rolling and you'll want bigger and better things. I know you have too much pride as you have stated, but opportunities like this down pop all the time.




The people wanna know! smile

i called Dan and he didnt answer, i will call him again...

it depends on what Nick does, and where he does it, and yes, how much it pays, because it costs money for gas to travel in this state, and theres no point spending 200 dollars a week for a 400 dollar pay check... yeah, you all will say "its better than zero", but it is kinda stupid if you look closely...

i had to decline quite a few jobs over this year, because i couldnt get to them...

20+ an hour jobs...

they are still there tho i think, they are friends and family and all
