Damn, Scratch. Nice work.
Chimney fires are scary.
Back in October, we had some flash flooding here. I was going around the neighborhood at 1:30AM waking people up to move their cars.

Man, oh man. I'm glad everybody got out and you are safe as well, pal. So saddening to hear. Wish I could help out in some way

Careful you don't do that at @Faceplanted's house. You'll end up with gun pointed at you. He lives in a sketchy neighborhood.

Had a guy come to the door last night (7:20ish) holding a shotgun in his right hand. He even left a not saying "UPS please knock loud" taped to his door. Normally I wouldn't have knocked that late, but I needed a sig and he left a note and everything. That is the first and last time I have this happen to me!

Looks like the house was a loss long before the fire started.
You really are a piece of work, Dave.
Just because you see a swing set, a couple bird feeders and what may be a dog run outside a house in the woods, it was a loss?
Go back and hide in your crappy little townhouse.

My son says he can be done sooner with out a helper. I am guessing you agree.

I know you are miserable, but are you really that heartless?
In my younger days, that would have been true. I used to run 200 stops by myself and be done by 5:30. I would refuse to take one for ten years because they slowed me down so much. Now I am forced to use them. My first one was a young guy on from the Preload, he was too slow. My present one is fifty-three years old and wears a hearing aid. He will work six hours on the Preload and then ride with me for seven hours. Plus he works the Super Sorts Saturday and Sunday in my Hub, he still hustles at the end of the day. My third golfcart helper is amazing, I finally got a great team put together. I meet both of my Helpers at 10:30 after I get my air off, I keep mine on the car until I finish.

It is just too bad UPS management can not duplicate the concept of a team effort.

Tire chains would just ruin the whole look of the car.

Y
your son is right. The exception would be a very good helper who keeps his/her mouth shut and hustles. From my experience that's 1 out of 100. I'd much rather not have one

I tell them to walk at a brisk and ahow them how i do. Having a helper on my route is beyond stupid so keeping their mouth shut is not what I want. If I'm going to be forced to use one when i dont need one the number one requirement is that it's someone i can talk to.

I had one of those last year. Kid worked his butt off and knew the DIAD inside and out.
My current helper looks like he came from the shelter.
