I may fall down but I will rise

Week #2 of OLC Sign Job

Well this week Jason and I embarked on our mission of putting signs around the streets of Cartersville yet again, and this time things went WAY smoother. We started at 6 and worked for about three and a half hours and put out all the signs we were able to fit in my car, which were about 50.WE KNOCKED THOSE THINGS OUT! We even had a little time in between to eat at Fuddruckers. I was riding around town today and I only saw 1 sign thats gone astray, so we’re not losing as many signs as we did last week.
Although things we’re going like a dream, we did manage to have one little confrontation. Toward the end of our route I decided to stop at my grandfathers business (Mid-Supply co.) to put out a few signs. I had justy put three out when a police officer pulled up next to my car where Jason was standing. APPARENTLY you’re not supposed to put signs out in front of a business while the business is closed, and if anything were to happen to the property during the night WE would be responsible. I tried to explain to the officer in a polite manor that it was my grandfathers property and that I had permission to put signs out, but the officer did not believe me. I don’t understand, a cop can catch me for LEGALLY putting signs up, but they cant ever catch the 9864259645 people that I’ve seen stealing stuff from my grandpas warehouse! Am I THAT noticeable???????
All in all it turned out to be a VERY successful night for the two of us. And we didn’t get a ticket! Thats always a good thing.
