moving anul folks

yeap, moving anul folks

moving folks , something i always find interesting and annoying,.
As a general rule out there, don't ask some one to move your stuff , if you cann't seem to pack it your self, i have numerious stories around this theme, from moving exgirlfriends to people who i barely know , but know i have a truck, i was helping out a fellow just recently move, and he is sorta snotty and complains alot, about stuff ,a regular office guy spends alot of time in doors, and made some money, and is single, a bit older than i, he always looked down on me about "career" and money etc, the artist deal but over liked me, but he is moving on to another city and wanted me to help move his stuff,
I think one of the worest things that can happen to ya when you get older is insolating yourself from folks who might disagree with you about such simple matters like how to tape a box up,.
one of my pet peeves about what i call anual retentive people , basicly people who haven't much expericance with something(an object) and approach it very cautiously is the seriousness to take there inexperiance , as if they know what they are doing,. and they think they know how to do it "right".
=--=-=-=-=
Doing it "righ"t means to anule people, time works on their scehdual so they can work around there lack of understanding of the thing, but work under the supiorioty that they know what they are doing.

I ended up arguing with someone about all this moving biz, about "well they want there stuff to be treated right done right" well thats all in good but there is one thing anul retentive peole always seem to factor out of the equasion, time!,. if they have to get e somethign done on a timeline, they will always fail or delay .
take for instants , wood working , now i am not a professional ,
but i do know how to do the shit, i got into an argument with this one guy who was making fun of my sloppyness,( this meaing not using all the corprate safty blushit proceedures and precautions)

about stuff, mainly about frames, i said, well if you had to make 20 frames in three hours could you, when it just took you on hour to make one, (its all those extra proceedures that don't mean anything)
here is an example, one time me and serg got into a huge argument out in Redford about how to cut a 90 degree cut on a table saw, it was like apples and orages but to anul retentive fucks like serg they cann't see it any other way and think any other way isn't "right" that buzz word, well here is what happen, we are out in the middle of the desart, and he wants to cut 2x4, i tell him there is a guild on the table saw that is set up to cut a 90degree cut but he wasn't used to it, and had to have a carpenters square so he can pencil off the cut ans guide it threw the saw, so he knew it was being cut, i said it was unnessary just make your cut "eye ball it" and go, the big problem was there was now carpenter square, and since there was no square he couldn't do the job, or had to wait, to get one , hummm time

. and much like moving somebody, when the moving van shows up and your still trying to arrange your antique tea cup in a box and worrying the fabric will get moldy knowing ( they are only going to be in the box for a day oer so,) i don't feel sorry for you as a matter of fact you should be attack and made fun of !, cause you think the fucking world is on your scedual, bacily, and bamb you have to turn the truck away, pay more, i wonder why rich folks seem to be more anule that most , maybe cause they never really had to deal with reality ,phisical challeges, , now making money i a skill, but real life, , maybe whats going on in society now is a abstract lifestyle where we all just throw money at problems and never really do it ourself, (it doesn't works so well with cavitys and hookers)
-=-=-=
you know i move out of here in dec, and i am already boxing things up and geting rid of things, . .
another thing about all this is " going to work", i am gettign to old for one thing, that is "working for other folks "and not putting up with their bs, or i might start question the morality of what i am doing, in realition to the person who is having me do thier stuff, belive me i need the money but as i was moving my friend i started realising i was enableing his problems and i started lecturing hm about all this,
-=-=-=
ahhhh maybe its best to just stay away form peolpe,
==--=
i predict now about worrying about getting old, i feel that if i had it my way, a pure test of survialness is to stay poor and live out on a small property have a garden raise chickens and live in a barn, i bet you would live longer than, than all the suberian decandances that are around people now, why?
well i believe , like i saw ol ms Finke , our nieighbor over in Brenham , she was this older lady who lived with her handicap son, she was like 80 plus and still out doing work around the yard, jeeeze! maybe i am to fat and out of shape to deal with it, but, if there ain't no ladys around to make me creat comforts, it will probbably be spartan ninja style folk lifestye
