amazingkevin Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 I stopped to ask for free wood at a cabinet workers shop i never been to .Ends up he does a lot of hardwood stuff. I showed him the name of his employee i made and asked if he would give it to him.Ends up the employee quit him after 9 years and in the middle of a expensive job.Everyday he's late on delivery it's 1400 off the bill.He was impressed with the name and told me this is exactly what he's been looking for to give to a company that gives him tons of work .He asked how much and i told him a dollar a letter. He then said to get ready for a $400.00 order as there are 40 employees there.He figures it will be $10 bucks a name.Thank you JESUS and just in time to pay off my guardian angel s that fixed my car for me .He all so said you need wood i got plenty!!!

Well done Kevin, and I'm assuming you've got a smile as wide as the Atlantic Ocean. Great news indeed, it just proves the old saying, "Everything comes to those who wait", and you've waited long enough!!!!. Of course, being a Scot, to me, FREEEEEEbies are the greatest things that ever were invented, (certainly NOT by a Scotsman), I might add. . Ye dinna get if ye dinna ask. Congratulations Kevin and take care. Rob Roy. Edited February 14, 2015 by Rob Roy Quote
