Title: Gotta say, truck=more friends and no, this ain't your granny's storage anymore
Post by: theking on June 30, 2022, 10:31:03 AM
So the other day, a co-worker's friend asked me if I can help her move her stuff to a storage. Man, I don't even know her but she's my co-worker's friend so I helped  ;D.

I have not used a storage facility in a long time so didn't know how far advance that business has come. I'm impressed with these new climate control storage facilities  O0:

A roommate of mine while in college is malay.   So when he graduated from college, it is time to boot his azz back to his own country.  So being in the usa, you buy things so with all of his junks, he set up an account at these storage facilities.  Now it doesn't make any sense to store stuff that cost less than the monthly bill.  In due time, they can't continue to pay for it and so, that's how you get storage wars where they auction off your lot.

Another story I remembered is this one homeless looking white chick asked me to drop her off at these storage facility.  Turns out she be living illegally in his own storage unit.  Sure cheaper than paying rent.  Temporary living only because they will find out and boot her azz as well.  They got cameras there yo.

Don't have any experience with these new advance ones but sure looks clean compared to the ones I've used in the 80s and 90s... O0

Good story and I can see that happening..

I can also see folks bring hookers in their storage to do the deed too...

Speaking of "storage wars", I took these photos as the personal belongings in this storage unit could be a candidate.. ???:
