Default Be careful

Be careful when dealing with certain people on here. As some of you may know, I am in DESPERATE financial trouble, of a very serious nature and NEED H ELP BAD or a job or else. If anyone out here can somehow have ideas on acct or any decent jobs in Hartford CT area, or a way to make money legally, let me know vis message. THANK YOU TO MY FRIENDS ON NET54

Now, Im only saying this too because I recently had a transaction w someone on here for something that I really need money for, just for a car tire, not nearly what I need

POOR COMMUNICATION and no payment yet. I won't say who on here, but it frustrates me, because When I buy on here, as most of you know, I try and pay right away or I don't buy it. Ive had a couple unfort incidents selling, one w an item that was stolen, or I tossed by mistake and need to make good , tho I got insulted for the whole deal. And an item I legit last that I was shipping, but of course I refunded.

My point is, don't screw people or make it hard for a deal. To some, who have the money and this and that, its prob not a big deal, to others IT IS.

I am sorry that you have had difficulties with regards to transactions here.

I am happy to say that every transaction I have had on this board has been very smooth with regards to the other members I have dealt with.

USPS, that is another story...

Scott:

What is your work background? It would be good to have that information in order for someone to possibly help with the job search.

Agreed. Since we are already here let us know what you do and can do, Scott. You never know. This board has wide reaching exposure.

And it doesn't hurt to remind everyone to let me know when/if deals (on the board) go sour. If someone pays a day late, I don't want to know about. If it's weeks late then I do. Everyone should over-communicate on the board and generally follow through with with they say they will. CaVEAT Emptor as always.

Good luck in your quest Scott...

Scott if you are willing to relocate then look at Oshgosh for a job. We are hiring like crazy and have many segments nation wide. Let me know if you do and you can use me as a reference.

I believe it's Oshkosh as in

Oshkosh B'gosh

and not Oshgosh B'kosh.

Oshkosh is in Wisconsin on Lake Winnebago, not Lake Win-A-Bagel.
