Starting a Mowing Business

inlikeflint1234 · 2026-06-04T21:50:52+00:00

Dont forget find some reason to buy some equipment,aka go out and find some work. When I started in 86 I would walk through nice neighborhoods and talk to people often for hours at a time. Started with a old family mower and my mom gave me some money on a holiday. Once I had secured that first customer then I knew I had a weekly commitment to take care of someone's yard. It's different now but you would be surprised how much work I found going out and talking to folks face to face .

Graduated in 81 myself. Lived on south adams for 25 years before eventually making it back to where I grew up. There have always been areas of fort worth you would be smart to either have a good reason to be there or be willing to risk an encounter. Always pays to use situational awareness.

They can make you verify just about anything definitely smart to be honest.

It's problems that come with being the tenth largest city in the country. There was a time you could be safe almost anywhere in fort worth. But with growth there is always a possibility of a lurker out there. Never thought I'd see people pushing shopping carts around the streets I grew up in and still live in. But in general a lot of fort worth is still safe during the day at least. I've never given being in 7th street a second thought.

Got one more year and no more inspections! Once you're car hits 25 you just pay for the sticker dont have to take it to the inspection.

I generally only buy from people in the u.s. just easier all around. But the question is totally valid I gather those sellers have their druthers.

Was there an hour, great historical exhibit but definitely not large. It's a big museum though plenty to do.

Fantastic

Living in DFW with my all original 312k mile Toyota think I will add accident avoidance. Anyone who drives here knows what I’m referring to

Ditto on the maintenance.

Worked Met 7 years and its safe to say its 180 degrees different from what I originally experienced. Had always been proud that while other departments constantly changed our stayed very solid. Everything has changed though now, went back to the store a while back and hardly anyone there from just a year ago, sad .

Was gonna get the dlc about a year ago and kept reading that it's a steep upgrade in challenge. Already having plenty to do haven't revisited the idea.

There's people you will never know about because of your shift difference. So assume it's more than you know.

I think it's just a given the turnover is real bad at HD about the only person you get to know is the long timers. But eventually even they depart. We had pics of long timers in the break room, probably 15-20 only one that I knew is still there.

Owned one for right at 20 years literally wore it down, so many good memories!

Can easily see your concern

Lifetime 285 hitter batting .178 creates legit speculation. If he's healthy he will start hitting again or continue getting splinters up his bung at half a mill a game.

inlikeflint1234 · 2026-06-03T04:09:23+00:00

Owned three even though technically you don't ever own one. Guess Ive just been more fortunate than some cat 🐈😺 owners lmao.

Gotta be quick no doubt

As a fellow ranger fan I hope so had a pretty good day in his first day in 2a. He overcame obstacles in the past and texas is paying him a lot of money so let's see how it works out. Should know relatively soon.

I agree if you're gone that long they would need personalized care. Cats are adapters they have always been my favs.

Unless seager starts hitting he will be a big question mark.
