    I don’t want to be a bother to anyone. But if anyone asks me I will gladly help and not think of them as a bother. I don’t know why I can’t, in the moment, realize others most likely feel the same. Must be a self esteem thing.

        I commented the same thing before I found your post.

        I love my Aeron. Picked it up in excellent shape for 70% below retail from a bankruptcy liquidator.

    I’m actually this kind of person, and sometimes I wish I had asked others for help.

    I feel like I never actually helped anyone so I do not deserve anything.

    If his friends are anything like mine, he did ask for help and this is all his friends who came to help…

      Michael complained about his back, Gary said his truck broke down, and Brent, of course, isn’t answering his phone.

    What it feels like being drunk out of my mind trying to navigate my wheelchair bound grandma back home after an aggravated afternoon of boggle.

    Wheels are always a great idea when moving things. Big straps also great (thank you forearm forklifts).

    Reminds me of an old Jewish mother joke.

    How many Jewish mothers does it take to change a lightbulb?

    I just hung 4 shelves in my garage. 2 were 8ft long, and 2 were 10ft long. I’m proud to have done it by myself

      That’s awesome! There’s a home improvement comm around here somewhere that seems to have a lot of DIYers.
