A man is only as good as his word.
A couple of months ago when SAW960, Scott Worthington, got his new tires for his truck i offered to buy his old ones.
At that time he agreed to sell them to me. I told him i would buy them in a week after i got paid.
That week came around, and he had left town, and told me to go ahead and pick them up and pay me when he got back.
I didn't like the idea of taking something i hadn't paid for, so i waited. Then he got back, came into my deli and we BS'd for a while. The subject of the tires came up and i asked him if he wanted the money. He hesitated, said "not right now" and moved off the subject.
I thought that was kinda odd, but didn't question it. Before he left he offered to pay me for the food he and his girl friend consumed, and i told him to put it toward the tires, feeling as though that was a sure way to guarantee that he would still sell them to me if he agreed to do that. He said sure, and we went out side to see him off.
We got out to his girl friends car, and i asked him when in could come pick up the tires. He said he would call me.
You want to guess what happened next? Or rather what didn't happen next....
Yep, you guessed it, he didn't call. Then i got a call from his room mate last night telling me that he was leaving town for good, and that the tires i was going to buy where back on his truck!
Now, i'm not supper man, and i am by no means a perfect human being. I get Very upset over small stuff. On the other hand, i keep my cool real well in really bad situations. So yeah, i got ticked, bad enough to the point that i didn't even ask his room mate to put him on the phone. I knew it wouldn't have mattered at this point, the tires where on his truck, and he was leaving with in the hour.
This is a situation that could have been really easily avoided. All he had to do was tell me he didn't really want to sell them. But no, he led me on, and then took me for a ride for what, a free meal worth about $25. bucks?
Good move Scott, shows us what kind of person you really are. Not as though there was ever any kind of doubt to that after seeing what you did to your ex wife and kids over an 18 year old hussy. That's right, i called her a hussy. Just ask Doug what she was up to the day we where all in the garage together, and you where out at base with me fixing the pipe bender...
I hope the next time you do a self reality check you realize that you cant treat total strangers the way you want, and think that it wont haunt you. At least it will be up long enough for a few people to get an idea of what kinda guy you are.
B.T.W. If you feel so compelled to make this right, send me a check for your meal that day.
And you don't have to worry about screening your calls on your cell any more, i wont bother to call you again.
I was some what warned about Scott, and his intentions. I didn't listen, to the people that warned me about him, and you know who you are, i am sorry i didn't listen. I will listen to you more often from now on..
In closing all i have to say is...
Scott, it was you that showed me that "Charlie Wenzel" story.. What was the deal there, where you just reading it to get some advice on "how too"?
My name is Zak, and i got Worthington-ed... >:(
