New Rules At The Dig


My old lady and me go to the Goodwill "as-is" depot known by those in the know as "The Dig". Cuz, like, you dig through piles of stuff in hopes of finding gold, or at least something useful. 
It's a cool place. There are large bins of clothes and wares rolled out on a very irregular basis and the prices for whatever you find in there are dirt cheap, seriously like pennies. You can fill a shopping cart full or whatever for usually around five dollars. I have found lots of really good items, vintage household goods, GI-Joes, Legos, Megos you name it. It's fun. 



Went there this saturday and got handed that list of weird rules up there. The vibe in the dig has changed with all the Storage Wars, American Pickers type action on TV. Dudes are getting mad serious. All like pushing and shoving for spots on the new carts. 

I saw this one fool who had two semi-disabled goons picking things and bringing them to him all day. I've seen same dude at the swap meet before with the same team of scrubs selling his Dig found goods at overpriced prices. He's putting together a powerful empire. I prolly shouldn't talk junc because I don't have anyone working for me. I have to pick for myself and sell for myself. 

Did you notice the little disclaimer at the bottom of the note in super fine print? The part about how the rules are subject to change based on your behavior? That is a disclaimer and a half. It pretty much gives them the ability to clown you in anyway that they want and to blame it on you and YOUR shitty outlook. They got some good lawyers working for The Dig I suppose.
