Saturday I was scheduled to leave Greenville to go to Augusta to get my girlfriends stuff with a Uhaul and some friends, and pretty much everything that went wrong could. The Uhaul was booked until 3, even though it had been reserved weeks in advance at an earlier time, and this cost us 2 of our helpers due to scheduling conflicts.
