Good morning sunshine. Are you up bright and early or not to bed yet?
You got that right! Good morning

Thanks Jim. I asked 1 of the people who keep watch over the cashiers about this and she told me I cant do any thing about it.

Good morning all. Nice day today... work 'til lunch, round up fittings and hoses for a new mod on the new Excursion, take the kids blueberry picking (FREE), have dinner with the wife and kids, and then organize my "office" in the basement the rest of the evening.
Jacob, you're in a tough spot, and its difficult to draw hard and fast rules about how to handle such situations because of how our hard-earned and fought-for "individual rights to privacy" tend to also protect those who should be watched more carefully. One thing you might consider, but only if the owner agrees... perhaps a bug could be put in the police daprtment's ear about "suspicious purchases" like you've described. Even then, they may or may not do anything, and even if the do, it might not really resolve anything.... who knows?
Just a thought... and like many other thoughts I have... some are worth pursuing while others end up being just plain stupid.

Good morning everyone.
Pete I'm on the other end of the stick, work wise.
LOTS of broken cars to try and keep up with.
Hope I don't have to work late tonight.
.
Jacob, I sympathize with you.
You're still young, so haven't really had the time to experience all of the good and the bad things that happen out there. I'm 52 and still feel rather sheltered in a lot of things.
This sort of situation is a good way to learn from other peoples mistakes and keep the train wrecks down to a minimum in your own life.

I'm glad to hear that you have plenty of work, Dan. I've actually picked up some billable time this week myself, but it is still very slow while we're waiting on the corporate geniuses to figure out how to let a PO go through so we can get work done for our clients.

If you make some for yourself, let me know if you have any ideas for improvement. 
I like to cook, but am a real amateur.

I can grill well and cook some but don't ask me to bake. I like to improvise too much and baked goods do't like that. I will let you know Dan.
Cangratulations John. That is super news!
