I downloaded On X Off-road and it’s got a snow option on it that is legit amazeballs. Has every single snowmobile trail you can think of and works offline. Game changer.

I’ve used OnX for hunting the last 5 years or so and it’s been pretty awesome, the offline maps are the best part since all the info “within the map” is also saved for offline use like mileages, trail info, property lines, etc, it’s fully functional provided you’ve saved the zone you’re in.

Yeah I’ve had the Hunt app for a few years now it’s been awesome. Now I’ve got the off road one to!
 
I feel like an idiot. I listed two knives, among others, with model numbers of 47 and 74. A fellow claims one and I read it as the other. Then another fellow claims the same knife, prompting another fellow to point out that I already sold him that knife (but I thought it was the other one). I'm glad he was paying attention. Otherwise, I would have sent two guys the wrong knives.

I'm not dyslexic. Not that I know of anyway.

Ah. Yes. I too am retarded, my brother.
 
Some people can't grasp the idea of "money doesn't buy your way out of being a douchebag".

I have a busse knife posted for sale on a local site (as well as here). This guy from the local site texted me an offer in a way that rubbed me the wrong way; like he was dictating terms that I had no say in, as if he's the only person that could make the purchase.

I let it slide and told him he was too low. So he offered my asking price and I agreed to meet his very specific delivery terms. He sent me the address and lowered the price he had agreed to pay.

I was so irritated that I told him no and that he didn't need to worry about purchasing the knife from me; I didn't want to sell to him.

His response, "Fine. F___k you I'll pay the full price".

Do people really think this is how business is conducted? Does anyone think that kind of response will change someone's mind?

Needless to say I won't be selling him the knife.

I had a young guy contact me about a sale once and he acted similarly, like he was doing me a favor offering to buy my knife for half of it's value. I sold it to the next guy that was interested as the first buyer threw a tantrum and said ok ok he'd pay my asking price.

I'd say maybe he learned a hard lesson, but I don't think people like that ever learn.
 
Many years ago I had some type of collection agent call to explain a BS reason why I should owe them money. He seemed pleasantly surprised when I sounded sincere and started with "oh wow, I see, well I get paid on Fridays", but then I shifted gears and said "so I'll pay you zero dollars every Friday until you DIE, and then we'll consider it settled". He never called back.

Sorry to hear it bro.

I got my first job at 14 years old.

I worked a part-time job through college

I graduated with a full-time job and I've been employed full-time my entire life.

I would sincerely enjoy a few months of unemployment.

I wonder if I can fire myself and draw self unemployment?

Is "self unemployment" a thing? I could legitimately fire myself. I am staggeringly incompetent.

...serious question...

Nah, if you're that incompetent you should just run for government office. You will probably wake up as the governor....maybe even the president.
 
Me and the new manager we got at my old place didn’t see eye to eye so it was best I left. I think I am getting out of working in the field, I am going into sales. And yes JJ medical insurance for sure i don’t work for anywho doesn’t offer it for me and the family.

I’ll probably stay in the union and pay my dues every month to keep my status and pension.
