Between Omaha and Des Moines, 7 miles South of I80 | midnitedrifter - 10/15/2016 18:49 How do you handle guys that want to borrow equipment from you all the time? The guy that has me a little pissed right now has gotten 12 things in the last 2-3 months, and never a offer to pay or a case of beer or a thank you. And nothing ever comes back with fuel or gas put in it... That's my rant for the day,,, That's way, way, way too much. You are being used. Others might say you are an "enabler"; because you haven't "put your foot down". Time to say "No more". I figure even if a person borrowed, 2 things a whole year, that would be plenty (And I'm thinking tools mostly, let alone, bigger equipment) Just remember, "some people" just plain feel, in their head, that it isn't a big deal to constantly borrow stuff. They have a different reality than what most of us would consider normal or responsible.(or their parents were the same way, and they learned bad habits)
