SPEAKER_00: Okay, let me break down some information here.
SPEAKER_00: What's your name?

SPEAKER_00: Chaplain, Schumacher.
SPEAKER_00: Are you a minister?
SPEAKER_02: I'm just trucking up.
SPEAKER_02: Rebar.
SPEAKER_00: What is that?
SPEAKER_02: Construction material.
SPEAKER_00: Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_00: Not everybody knows what rebar is.
SPEAKER_00: So you're driving your own rig? Is that it?
SPEAKER_02: Are you a big drinker there?
SPEAKER_00: I'm not a drinker at all.
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
SPEAKER_00: What I'm trying to follow here is that you're going to be trucking rebar up here.
SPEAKER_00: Does that mean you have your own rig?
SPEAKER_00: Because I've got a Subaru station like you.
SPEAKER_02: I'm 6'4.11.
SPEAKER_02: A size 17 and a half sock.
SPEAKER_00: Well, I'm 5'10, you know, so.
SPEAKER_02: Oh, I'm going to stretch you out, Guy.
SPEAKER_00: Excuse me?
SPEAKER_02: So how much can I expect to make here, monetarily?
SPEAKER_00: You?
SPEAKER_00: Making?
SPEAKER_00: No, I'm not paying for a driver.
SPEAKER_00: A driver is to go out of Alaska with me,
SPEAKER_00: have their own money to stay at motels or whatever
SPEAKER_00: and help share with gas.
SPEAKER_02: I need a bus.
SPEAKER_02: per diem at the very least.
SPEAKER_00: I'm not looking to hire a driver because it's going to be expensive enough.
SPEAKER_00: Read my ad again.
SPEAKER_02: I'm drafting an invoice right now to send to you.
SPEAKER_00: No, the whole point is to share expenses.
SPEAKER_02: Listen, what kind of mileage you get on this thing?
SPEAKER_00: Am I, Subaru?
SPEAKER_00: 16 to 18?
SPEAKER_02: What's all that noise up there?
SPEAKER_00: I don't know. The noise is on your end.
SPEAKER_00: Okay, I got a microse.
SPEAKER_02: mechanic. He's going to come out there and take a look.
SPEAKER_00: I have my car checked out. I've maintained this car. I've got every maintenance record,
SPEAKER_00: everything that's been done to this car.
SPEAKER_00: Hello?
SPEAKER_00: Okay, and I just had it move oil and filtered, and it'll get a tune-up, whether it needs it or not.
SPEAKER_00: It's going to get a tune-up, another oil and filter change.
SPEAKER_00: Hello?
SPEAKER_00: Hello?
SPEAKER_00: Yes.
SPEAKER_00: I don't know who's good. I didn't dial anybody. We're getting all kinds of calls.
SPEAKER_00: cross stuff. Yeah, me too. So, somebody's screwing with the phones. Okay, we'll just
SPEAKER_02: have to deal with it. All right. So, we're going to get a mechanic out there and check it out.
SPEAKER_00: You're going to get a mechanic from Anchorage to check out my car, and you expect to be paid.
SPEAKER_00: No, I'm not the mechanic, sir. No, but you expect to be paid.
SPEAKER_02: Well, hey, I got a good buddy of mine. He's a certified supero mechanic. It's not okay?
SPEAKER_00: We're getting cross-referenced here on phone calls.
SPEAKER_00: You must be getting calls coming in on you.
SPEAKER_00: Yep.
SPEAKER_00: Okay.
SPEAKER_00: So nothing we can do about it.
SPEAKER_00: I've talked to the phone company about it.
SPEAKER_00: They can't do anything about it either.
SPEAKER_00: Somebody's figured a way to cross-
SPEAKER_00: No, I'm talking to somebody, and you're dialing in.
SPEAKER_00: No, I'm in Alaska.
SPEAKER_00: I'm in Alaska, and I'm talking to somebody in Colorado.
SPEAKER_00: Well, I'm in California.
SPEAKER_00: So we just have to bear with it.
None: Still there?
SPEAKER_01: Well, hello.
SPEAKER_00: You can have your mechanic call me, but I can't pay you, so you understand that.
SPEAKER_02: Yes, sir.
SPEAKER_00: Okay, that means I cannot pay anybody.
SPEAKER_00: If you're willing to share expenses, I'll have your mechanic look at it.
SPEAKER_02: Good deal, good deal.
SPEAKER_00: We've got to stop this.
SPEAKER_00: You just rang me again, guys.
SPEAKER_00: I did not ring you.
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
SPEAKER_00: Okay, just have your mechanic.
SPEAKER_00: Give me a call.
SPEAKER_00: You got my number already listed on the ad.
SPEAKER_02: And what's this about getting payment?
SPEAKER_02: Have you got payment drafted?
SPEAKER_00: I cannot pay you.
SPEAKER_00: I cannot pay you.
SPEAKER_00: I'm looking for somebody to share expenses from Alaska to Colorado or anywhere in between.
SPEAKER_01: How much money do you need?
SPEAKER_00: Oh, we got to end this.
SPEAKER_01: How much do you need?
SPEAKER_00: You should be ready for your own expenses as well.
SPEAKER_00: I'm not driving all the way through.
SPEAKER_00: I'm stopping at a motel at least two times.
SPEAKER_00: It's three days through Canada.
SPEAKER_00: So it's going to take a couple of motel rooms for you and for me.
SPEAKER_00: And I don't know, sharing of gas, whatever the gas costs are.
SPEAKER_00: I would say 500 bucks.
SPEAKER_02: And then minus what you pay me, correct?
SPEAKER_00: I'm not going to pay you anything.
SPEAKER_00: I can't afford to pay anybody anything.
SPEAKER_00: Don't call me again.
SPEAKER_02: It's $500.
SPEAKER_00: They're going to work out.
SPEAKER_00: You have to have the cash in your pocket to share expenses and to have for your meals and so forth.
SPEAKER_00: I am eating on shakes, meal replacement shakes.
SPEAKER_00: So that's going to be my meals.
SPEAKER_00: You know, I might have a meal every other day or something.
SPEAKER_00: I don't get paid, and I'm not paying anybody.
SPEAKER_02: How do I get the money to you?
SPEAKER_00: No, no.
SPEAKER_00: Just keeps getting interrupted.
SPEAKER_02: It's okay.
None: No, it's not okay.
None: Somebody else keeps interrupting.
None: Look, this is not going to work out, I said before, so let's forget it.
None: Don't call me again.
