Wanted to try a new scrap place. They were closest. Pulled in to empty lot, walked in. Waited a…read moreminute for anybody to talk to. Guy came out of the office asked me what I wanted. I said I would like to get rid of some lead acid batteries. He says " how many you got, 1 or 2. I said no, about 20. He looked annoyed, then glanced around in the shop. Then just proceeded out the small door. (All doors closed). Without a word to me. My thought was is he getting something or should I follow. So went out the same small door and saw him just standing at my vehicle. So I asked him, are we just gonna carry all these batteries in by hand? He responded, well if I can't get the forklift started. (he didn't even attempt to start it). He seemed so annoyed by this, as if I was a burden. So I said I'm sorry I'll just go somewhere else. He mumbled some things while I was getting into my car. I opened my window and said this is too much trouble I'll just go somewhere else. He respond very loudly, "go #### yourself. I simply responded, you as well. And drove off. Sure hope this wasn't an owner. I did notice one other worker in the shop doing some work.
