Thought I"d take some items to Yoder & Frey today In Archbold and consign them in. In couple of weeks they have a two day sale. I had a list I typed up to give them of 7 items. This list I made had tires on it. Well right off the bat the guy behind the counter that going to write this up started complaining about he"s tired of getting screwed on people bring in tires that are no good and they don"t sell and he calls the owners and they promise to pick them up and they don"t show up. He says he has to pay to have the tires removed and then he shows me this notice in black & white as of May of 2012 you will be charge bla bla dollars.
I asked him if he didn"t want the tires just say so! Then I said you could at least go out take a look at themin back my truck to look and he said I think I will. He looked them over and said I guess there desent enought tires. (2) of the tires was brand NEW 6.00 x 16 6 ply they where implement service tires. (1) was a 7.00 x 16 Truck Mud & snow still had the tips sticking out from when it was new. (1) used front tractor 16" tire in fair shape yet. And (2) p2105/7515 tires with 80% rubber yet.
So we go back inside and he grabs this paper to start writing out the consignment list.Then he starts out raging me about my Old style Tee/handle post hole digger and tells me that not worth the time an bother as he didn"t think it would bring much money. i said what is it with you anyways you act like you don"t what any of the stuff I have and I said if you don"t want it just tear up your paper. He said I think I will and tears it up and throws my list back in my face. Then I said what a Jerk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and walked out. Was going to take a trailer load of farm stuff ------ not now.
Now what did I do wrong? Was it me that got this day in a bad start? I don"t think so and if there was a way I could turn this guy in if I could! No one needs to be treated that way. It"s not the same no more down there I've been in out of there in the past 30 some odd years! Never been treated like that. It has change down there to me since this young guy runs the office.
Sorry for the rant, thought it make me feel better. Oh well I was wrong. take care, Mike

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
