    tell you pick ups what you said here. Explain that he was down on his luck you tried to help him then your tranny went out an he what he did he did on his own. You where not with him an you are trustworthy.



    I have people who step on my stuff all the time but they do not have the trust factor that they have with me. I have keys to companies and I have gone in there to pick up scrap or to use there tools/trailers when needed.

    The part on where he is making more money per ton...he did what others (an me) did. You walk in there and ask to talk to a buyer. Tell them you want dealer pricing and that you are bring X amount of tons a week...every week an you want to see what they can do because you are looking for a yard that can "take care of you". They see how many tons you bring in...they dont want you going to a yard thats not them an so they may work with you on pricing an give you dealer pricing.

    I dont think telling your customerd about your problems is a good Idea (just my thoughts) they have problems of their own to handle they dont need yours, br professional, and move on, a boxs of donuts and proffesionalism really can work miricals
