Tooling at back of Indian's neck is a dead giveaway, despite the blurry photos.
I'm gong to suggest that you edit your post to read differently, as it presently reads to me like an offer to sell . . .
I do value my time, but I also consider it an investment in the future of this business. I don't make trips to the SDB every day. Some days I...
