[hogjowl]

Isn't it some kind of misdemeanor crime to invite a kid to this hellhole?

 

[Desk Jockey]

I have a stuffed teddy bear for just the occasion.


Scott you don't have to say a word just point to the areas Mike touched you.

Awww walk it off son, just try to walk it off!

 

[Mikey P]

You fookers.

 

[Desk Jockey]

LOL

I knew you'd like that!

 

[Jim Pemberton]

My bet he's tough enough for whatever he'd get here.

Have you seen how kids in his age group brutalize each other in school and social media? This place would be like a visit to an indulgent grandmother's house compared to the world he lives in.

Are you calling us indulgent Grandmothers Jim?

 

[Jim Pemberton]

Relative to the "Lord of the Flies" world they live in, probably so Willy.

Of course the girls treat each other far more hatefully than the boys.

I hope Scott comes on; I lived the life of a teenager working for his father cleaning carpets and wishing I was doing anything else.

I remember being embarrassed about what I did for a living, so I lied and told people things like I was a grave digger or a garbage man instead.

 

[Willy P]

I never was or never will be embarrassed about my career path. I take great pride in making my customers homes healthier and improve the appearance of their surroundings. My rugby club has a group that includes dentists, architects. engineers and even a law professor. I don't in any way feel "less" because of what I do to make money. Jim Darling of Chemspec Canada , before he passed on, told me once about meeting a gent who was in this business. Jim enthusiastically said "Oh- a carpet cleaner". "No" the fellow replied "I'm a business man who chooses to clean carpets as my form of business". Funny how some of those nuggets stick with you.

 

[Jim Pemberton]

I got past my teenage embarrassment fairly quickly, but I am curious how Scott will respond, if he will.

Jim Darling was a good man Willy; I'm lucky I got to know him.

Yep. Jim did a lot of "guiding" when he saw the potential. Lee Senter, whom I'm also proud to call a friend, learned a lot from Jim. I admire him and people like yourself who have the best in mind for the guys who put the rubber to the road.

 

[Jim Pemberton]

Thank you Willy, Lee Senter is a very principled person, and has never hesitated to take on "the establishment" to do the right thing.

To Scott: Forgive me for hijacking your thread. We'd love to see your answers, and believe me you'll be treated respectfully, all of these jokes aside.

 

[Scott Rampage]

I just saw the post now and i have school in the morning so i will try to get back to you tomorrow but I have rugs to do.

 

[Scott Rampage]

Ill try to post tomorrow because I just got my permit and i
have been driving all day.

 

[Mikey P]

Listen young man, if you ever plan on going somewhere in this industry you're really going to need to focus and get your priorities in order.


washing rugs and driving around scamming young girls will get you nowhere in a hurry.

 

[GCCLee]

I feel for ya Scott

Remember as your driving your Old Man around from Job to Job now that he is still your friend and he's just teaching you, lol

 

[Scott Rampage]

Washing rugs will get me a lotus.

Thanks Scott!!

 

[dealtimeman]

Awesome and confident answers. Well done!

 

[Mikey P]

Nicely done Scott.

Your grammar teacher must be pretty hot...

Pay better attention to the chalk board young man.

 

[Scott Rampage]

Mr. P you must be very old like my dad because we don't have chalk boards anymore we have smart boards now.

 

[Mikey P]

What is a Smart Board?

 

[Scott Rampage]

Well since your not working you should look it up. We have another job to do right now.

 

[Jim Pemberton]

I think any fears anyone had that Scott couldn't stand up to this group have been proven to be unfounded

[Scott Rampage]

Athough this video may seem perplexing to the average middle aged man, I would inform you, Michael, that this is what the future is indulging in.

 

[Mikey P]

simply incredible


I guess the few schools I go into don't have the funds for that sort of thing.

they apparently spend too much on carpet cleaning..

 

[FB7777]

My kids schools have Smart Boards and each student has an iPad that is linked to the board . EBooks are all used . Homework and tests are predominanatly electronic teat

 

[ruff]

I nominate Scott to be #1, on Waldo's world famous ratings.
The kid is mensch and smart.

Move over Detroit's best!
