I find myself in a temporary position where I need a part-time job on top of my full-time job, my wife can’t work right now. I also don’t have time for a traditional part-time job and I can scrap anytime. I also do IT consulting, but it’s somewhat in conflict with my full-time job (time-wise, but the higher ups are aware I do it) and it’s more time constraining than just picking up stuff with your truck, maybe taking it apart, and then dropping if off somewhere for money. In fact, at lunch yesterday @ my full-time job, I picked up 660lbs of scrap metal. It’s also kind of fun. So even after the situation is taken care of - I will keep scrapping.
I am not a Prius driving tree hugger, but it’s more than obvious there is a problem with pollution of the air, water and land, and also recourses are being wasted and it seems as if doing this isn’t contributing to the problem as much as doing some other things.
...also for days like today - I thought for sure I was going to strike out, looked like I could get nothing substantial on the way home from work, but saw an old CL post (3 days old) with some stuff close by and took a chance, and picked up 860 lbs of scrap + some aluminum and copper, and will be back tomorrow cause there's still more I couldn't fit in my Dakota.x2 chicken dinner!
