Exhibit A why @LoudHogRider is one of the GOATS
happy hump day fam
Gotta admit - it would have gotten my attention. The plane tickets - already purchased in their names - along with the knowledge of my family's names and locations would have sealed the deal for me. So long, New Jersey!
thats not as impressive today because of internet/social media you could find that stuff in 5 mins of research + 1 guy tailing the family (civilians always take the same routes and love a schedule)
I've experienced levels of this type of intimidation but just imagining 3 soldiers standing silently then looking over out the window without saying and word and you see the vehicle on fire.... POWER move, executed to perfection.
Gives me some ideas for how to handle some things....
No doubt. Given its era, those guys weren't messing around with their research and intimidation factor. I see some "below market" property acquisitions in your future. 😉
Literally the expression that my Terminal Manager Randy used when he described the situation out there. It always stuck with me, and every time I've told this story (not that often), its included for authenticity.
not to give too much away but
the biggest issue "we" (my FIL, BILs and my wife's cousin) have right now is deciding on how to convince the York city council/zoning board to allow something (maybe also York County) and then if we get that approval we need to convince a Gretna businessman (Bryce Bares) to open a franchise on the I80 exit in York (cuz he has the rights for this brand between Lincoln and North Platte)
While not as dramatic as what @LoudHogRider experienced I owe my summer job in college to the Omaha Mob. My best friend in high school was of Sicilian descent and his father had the FHA (Federal Housing Administration) contracts for maintenance and lawn care for all the repo properties on the Near North Side in Omaha.
Long story short I became the foreman of the lawn crew that maintained 100 lawns twice a month. I was paid ridiculously well for the time, early '70s, but the story is how these contracts were arrived at. Each contract required 3 bidders minimum per the Feds and the 3 bidders were my boss, me and a guy who I supervised. How convenient. I said I don't know anything about setting up a contract or how much to request, etc. He said that's taken care of just sign the forms. It always worked out that my boss was the low bidder.
As an aside, we had an avocado green Chevy pickup full of lawn mowers and we worked every day on the Near North Side. The word went out that these 3 college age white guys in that very noticeable truck were there to clean up and beautify the hood and we never had a problem. To the contrary we had many nice older black ladies thank us for our work and they'd bring us lemonade or iced tea and home made snacks especially on miserably hot and humid days. We ate lunch in every dive bar from 24th and Lake and 30th and Ames all the way to Minnie Lusa and were treated just like locals. Different times for sure.

i cant compete with tge badassery that is @LoudHogRider & @bbenson67 so as a random thought
when you see a normal functioning decent looking guy with a fat troll of a wife do you assume he has a micropenis?

Usually from my experience from seeing kids in the Navy with BIG wives, it’s either they married the first piece of wool they ever got or they didn’t take a hard look at their mother and see the potential of them ballooning up after kids. But then again, some big girls give great mouth hugs.
Buddy of mine worked for Lanohas. They were planting trees in North Omaha. They'd get a block away and someone would pull the trees out. He did it for about a month and not a single tree was left.
Same story on the older ladies bringing them drinks though.
Who in TF wants to buy a used tree that's been ripped out of the ground? Can't they stick with tearing copper pipes out of buildings and AC units? How we gonna beat global warming without trees? C'mon, man. That's just bad policy by the North Omaha thugs. Buncha checker playing sonsabitches ...
No badass story here. Had an employee who I was going to terminate on Monday at 10:01am, resign at 9:36am. At least we don’t have to pay unemployment then.
Not too get long winded, but this employee sucked. Brought on by previous management, was waiting for one hire to get licensed and then move her along. This employee thought of herself as management but had done jack shit in over a year to even come close to being maybe considered. So she got mad and left 😂
