Getting real sick of no shows.... Does nobody have any decency these days!?

Seems I may have posted this before, but here it goes again.

I had a Dodge Ram for sale. I had it out at my parents...so this guy calls on it as I was out picking up a pizza. I was nearby so I agreed to go show it. He drives it, says he wants it, we settle on a price. He says he is short $100 and is going to the corner gas station to use the ATM. Okay. So I waited for about 15 minutes. Decided he is a jerkoff and that was his way of blowing me off. Headed home and reheated dinner. Ended up selling it for $200 more to a guy on payments. He was late on a few of them but he finally paid it off. I rarely agree to payments because I know how much people suck and can't keep their word. So it was hardly a surprise when about the 2nd or 3rd payment in, he calls and asks if I would like a "really nice big screen" as a payment instead. Nope, cash, and now. Oh okay...gimmee a few days.

Hey Sledge, I have gotten the jerks asking if I'll bring whatever to come for them to look at because they don't have a car, can't get away, whatever, etc. I would never dream of asking someone to do that.

No, I won't waste my time, gas, energy for you to either decide you don't want it, or offer even less AFTER I waste my time bringing it to you. Some people realllly have a LOT of gall.



Seems I heard something along the lines of "you attract what you are". This has me pretty bummed because I don't feel like I jerk people around and waste their time. I actually feel bad if I inconvenience someone. So I don't get why people think it's OKAY to be a complete @$$hole. Decency and courtesy is in extremely short supply these days.
