Well I just got to thank our assholes in Washington, DC. Four new jobs are being returned due lack of parts. Even Briggs don't have the parts. Can't repair equipment if I can't get the parts. Parts were inbound until this happen. Therefore I have to close the shop. Can't run a shop if the damn politicians got to interfere with it. Look like the only way I can make a living now is to charge for helping those on the net.

some people have good days, Others never have a good day. I guess your news service has not told you that USPS is accepting packages from both China and Hong Kong. Taiwan was never affected. Temu, Shein, Amazon are all shipping to consumers from China too. The packaging was only suspended for 12 hours to allow changes in screening. They are looking for fentanyl.

The reports I am getting is that they are looking into how to charge the consumer the tariffs. Doesn't matter any more here as the business is now closed and if they send out the packages and try to collect they can take the packages back and shove them up DeJoy and DJT anuses. I not paying any more taxes than what I was initially billed. No planning to begin with, other than just sticking a gun in my face and demand payment.

I am tired of being jerk around. They are changing their minds worst than most women do.

And I not the only one to close up shop in my area. Two other shops closed up too this week.

Get help before the depression and anger kills you. If you are trying to kill the forum, you are doing a good job of it with your anger.

The good Lord always makes a way for those who are willing to seek Him. Keep your head up and crack the good book, I'd recommend starting with the Gospel of John in a good readable translation such as the NLT. Just one man's free advice trying to help another with what's helped me through my tough times. Take it or leave it.

I prefer to talk lawnmowers. They are easier to understand.

Or mutually upset everybody for the same reasons.

Sounds like you just wanted an excuse to close up shop.
