What a day!

Started day off with a nice breakfast, 3 eggs, 4 pieces of bacon, glass of OJ, & cup of coffee. Mid morning, Mark (one of my employees) calls me and he had some potatoes rejected and blah blah blah. Broker says give me 30 minutes and I'll let you know where we are taking it. Walmart wouldn't take product but produce markets will usually if the quality isn't perfect. Anyways, he calls back about 2 hours later and gives location and then faxes paperwork over. He doesn't adjust the rate though so I call him and ask him if he expects us to do another 50 miles, an extra drop, and waste an additional 4 hours of work for free. This fucker says well you didn't ask for more money to which I replied do you have to ask your boss for your paycheck or do you assume your going to be paid for working? So then we get into how much and he says that's way to high but let me ask the customer if they can do anything (it wasn't our fault the shit was fucked up, we just transported their shitty product) and he calls back literally 4 minutes later and says we work together a lot you don't have to get so mad. That pissed me off ever more so I said "Do I LOOK LIKE A BITCH? NO? THEN WHY YOU TRYING TO FUCK ME LIKE A BITCH!" Ok, that's from Pulp Fiction but I told him just do the right thing, my guy is gonna lose 8 hours he could have been off work, that deserves money. He says I got you the damn money and I said thanks and hung up. Obviously the customer KNEW he should have to pay extra money for the time lost and extra miles and drop off that's why he had an answer so quick. This is VERY STANDARD practice in trucking so I didn't figure I needed to say "Hey you're not going to try and fuck me here are you?" At the end of it all he didn't even send new paperwork over showing new rate so I just wrote on old one and made a note so when I bill it if I don't get paid I will call him up again and fuck his day up.

 I have pool again tonight, subbing for a guy in the NAPA league which is a new league I started this summer. Here are my stats for the first session:

You'll notice total games won is 70-25, but it's a handicapped league so I have to beat people by 2-6 games. It got pretty tough trying to be people 8-4 or 9-3. We did win it all though and got some $crilly at the end of the year and qualified for National Tournament as well. Also I got a jacket for most breat and runs. Here was final standings:
