So I am feverishly trying to get things done to get out of Regina and head back to Edmonton by the end of the week. I have found that I relied too much on people committing things in a passing "Sure" or "Yeah I will buy that" I changed my mind leaving me with both an apartment to get rid of in the last couple days and some furniture. I suppose I should be pissed off, but I think I have come to expect this from even the most professional type people when it comes to money and haggling for stuff. I give them 30% off of furniture that is 4 months old, and they want 50% off. Give me a f#@king break! I give the discount to get rid of it knowing if I don't sell it I have to move it, and that's why I offer it at the price I do. Not so you can bend me over and take advantage of my leaving. These people are vultures. They actually think they are doing me a favor too! But you know, I will remember these yahoos going forward, and I am sure somewhere down the road we will work together again. And If I do have any furniture and stuff left over, I will give it away to a couple of the single moms that work with us as admin types. The ones that appreciate the hand and and appreciate what they have, not wallow in the fact they were able to jew me down another $100 on furniture.
Others were honest up front however and were a little more specific on what they wanted and I appreciated that. The fact is now I am 3 days away from leaving, and I still have my apartment and 1/3 my furniture. It is a bit stressful but I am not worried as I will hire cleaners for the house and move whatever I have to back to Edmonton. I will let the landlord try and rent it after I am gone, and hopefully it gets rented as soon as possible.
I really am hoping to be on the road by 3pm Friday, and call this place a memory. I am hoping to find some time over the next two days to pack all the stuff up, and come Friday, pack the Jeep and head er out.
