The Conversation Pit This is where EVERYTHING else goes. No subject is too mundane. How's the weather in your area? Did your kid cut his first tooth? Really, what do you think about the President? And don't get me started on Cummins and Duramaxes. Have at it! |

Bill's on the phone right now (no phone calls on Fridays, right?
![]() Bill's talked with him several times this week, and with the time he's spending on the phone with him trying to recover his vehicle, I'd say that he's spent at least a few hours helping this customer. He asked us the other day how much we would be charging him. "Nothing," Bill told him. I guess our customer kind of insisted on paying us something (it's pretty cool that he realizes that Bill's time is valuable) because I kept hearing Bill tell him, "Really, nothing," so (knowing that he's a pecan farmer), I chimed in with, "How 'bout some pecans?!?" So now this wonderful man is trading a few hours of Bill's time for a case of pecans. He's tickled -- as are we. ![]() ![]()

That is awesome! Paying is great, but you can't complain about bartering!

HAHA...that's great..the barter system always works. And it's great to see that there's still people out there willing to recognize that another person's time is worth something..Humanity is not dead.

Anybody a cattle rancher? A butcher? A few Ribeyes or a couple of NY Strips would NOT hurt our feelings.
