We go to the vet, negotiate the now bill from $400 back to original $200, but vet says it needs a release from original person who brought in the cat to let it go. I take the release down the street, order a cup of coffee and read the morning paper, scribble my best unreadable signature on it, and then return with $200 check and release.
Vet gives me the cat and wife begins process of rehoming cat again!
Very nice!
I remember in high school I had a valet job at a Marriott. They hired a 3rd party company to do their valet. Mile-Hi Valet was the company I believe, based out of Denver.
I worked one year and had no issues getting the job. I leave and a couple years later come back for a few months (it was kind of a seasonal job for me). I come back and I guess insurance requirements changed and they wanted your driving record now.
I was a late teen with an old Z-28 so needless to say I had some tickets. The manager mentioned what the criteria was, like no more than 2 tickets in the last 3 years etc. Alright. That’s cool.
I go down to the DMV and pay the $5 for my record. I go home, scan it, pop open Microsoft Paint of all things and made that baby look real solid 😂
Went in with my app filled out and handed him my record. Dude looked at it for 2 seconds and threw it on the desk.
