Waylay ed from my ideal day by relocation engineering SNAFU caused by lack of due diligence of a sales associate, no respect, so bummed I missed the swap.
Budd Bike Works Clients who appreciate how hard you are pushing against adversity and tip, even just enough for lunch, can make this kind of day feel more worthwhile though. It’s kind of strange to me that the new cultural norm to give generous gratuity for the trust you put in someone to do something as rudimentary as meet your desire for a beverage is practiced by practically the whole populace while the percentage of folks who tip the crew that competently transports one’s entire life to a new location stands at about 65%. Not much to do about bikes this one.. Really need to get back to my resume edit after this next frame, being a professional beast has had its bright spots and I’ve met more interesting folks and seen a broader slice of the spectrum that lives in my logistics radius of greater Boston than I could have doing anything else. An interesting 4 years I’ve spent in these two hats working as a mover(relocation engineer) and building Budd Bike Works on the side, excited to see what shakes out once I get my leg up. Can’t afford to get nickled and dimed as a producer in the red column of a companies ledger again though, cause damn it, I’m an ideas man, and I should be the boss.
