Stolen my a skid washer

[Walt Graner]

Tis the season I guess.
Someone stole a skid unit from me over the weekend, yea it's insured but it still pisses me off!

Did you have it bolted down? It seems like it would take 3 or 4 people to move it. I have mine bolted down and you would need to have one person under the trailer while someone on the top tried to use a wrench on the top. On top of that I have two hose reels bolted down in front of it. The only way to get the bolts out on the reels is to unwind all the hose to get to the bolts. So it would take a long time to try and move mine. Was it from a enclosed trailer, open trailer, shop, ??? I would think that someone who stole it would try and start their own pw biz with it so I would check out new guys in the area and see if they have it. I know ins. will cover but it is still the principal of it. Even if I got a brand new amchine I would still try and find out who did it. What would be funny is if you found out the company and then you hire them to wash your house and then call the cops while they are working on your house. Unless of course your stuff is at your house and they knew it was you they stole it from.

Took it off my truck last month, was going to install on another trailer this week. They used a HVAC lift that was stored on the other side of the building to lift it (got good prints) and two good leads. Inside job all the way.

Inside job? That is even worse.. Try not to let it spoil your Christmas.

 

[Walt Graner]

I know, I keep saying that to myself. lleh you know it's the thought that counts, well that sure hits it on the head. All I gotta say is I will find it, that much I can assure you.

I know how heartbreaking it is,when they stole my work truck I have less repect for man kind.Around here they just slap them on the hand for stealing your stuff unless it leads them to drugs.It's hard to trust anybody anymore,its not hard for a good guy to go bad.

Inside jobs are the most common nowdays,your a mean mean boss j/k .

 

[Walt Graner]

Yea I know, I shouldn’t let this spoil my positive attitude or Christmas. Live & let live, forgive & forget, be positive!
So on a positive note to the guys who stole my stuff, I am positive that I feel you should forever burn in the fire of the damned, naked, tied to a steak with fire ants yeah, that’s it lots and lots of fire ants, spitting blood from chewing of chards of glass.
Oh my, that sounded kind bitter, I guess I need to work on that some more.

 

[Larry L.]

didn't sound bitter to me,if I ever get the chance I hope to have a three legged race with the one that stole my truck.

Was this a X employee or one still working that thought you still owned him something?

The one that stole from me lived out of the area,he was on the run from the law.They keep putting off his court date and he stoled it back in the early summer.If this is your first time welcome to the club,it'll give you a better outlook on life lol.

 

[Walt Graner]

Nope not my first Rodeo, I'd hate to add stuff up over the last 15 years but I know it's at leat 30 K. Had a entire rig stolen about 8 years ago, 2 washers, airless paint rig, emgol air comp, welder the works. Not to mention the couple that were running an appartment complex of mine that were skimming off the top for years. It really can make you a different person if you let it.
Don't think it was/is an employee but I think it was someone close, got two folks in my head that hung around and did od jobs for tenants and stuff.

yeah I know,no matter how sharp you think your spurs are the horse rusters will figure a way to slim part of the sharpest off the spurs.It took years for the company I worked for to catch a saleperson slimming the sales.His part time helper told on him,if it wasn't for being told on I don't know if they would have ever caught him,he was keeping to sets of books,one for him and one for them.

Its getting close to xmas,its the only way a few know how to make extra dollars,your lucky thats all they got.I seen on the news today where a santa robbed a bank in PA. ,getting pretty bad when santa has to steal for a living .

Walt:

Cleaner times will list stolen equipment...Can't hurt.

 

[Aplus]

I know how you feel Walt. Last month some one broke into my shed, right in my backyard, and stole my 5000w generator, and a Toro snowblower. 1600 bucks, and I had a 500 deductible to replace the stuff. Merry Christmas, eh?

Well at least it's just a property crime, and not a personal crime. Things could always be worse, for sure. But I know how it really upset me that some scumbag was inside my yard and stole my stuff that I worked hard to get.

This really sucks. Good reason to own a gun so if need be the bad guy can say hello to you,Smith and Wesson.

 

[Walt Graner]

I did'nt know that about the cleanertimes folks I'll look into it.
Yea, if it was personal stuff I would really be pissed but oh well just part of life, just kinda sad.
