For newcomers, I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Robert J. I'm a licensed plumber, contractor, locksmith, roofer, welder, and police officer. I hold a black belt and am also a licensed nin ja. I'm trained in Ju do, K arate, N injitsu, Ta e K won Doe, and kick bo xing. I was invited to the U FC but I refused to abide by their soft rules.

Women fear me and men want to be w ith me. I've been approached by various sp y agen cies throughout my life for different careers but have turned them all down due to my ongoing legal disputes with city municipalities that have tried to bully me.

I'm licensed to carr y c oncealed, in fact I won't leave my property unless I'm in my M 1 Abr ams tank, which isn't per mitted in my municipality, but I also hold a license for that.

I be nd laws to my will and train my tenants to kn eel before spea king my name. I'm now going to intro all of my posts with these facts.

You are some piece of work. I've worked hard to learn my trades and have shared my experiences with other on this forum. I never said I was a police officer, I'm not. I've studied martial arts under a PKA world champion who retired undefeated. Working 7 days a week for 20 years and buying rentals, puts me ahead of the game -- having a nice nest egg.

What accomplishments have you achieved? Like like to hear a few!

Laugh instead of cry. Give them an A for creativity!

Seriously though, it's not nice to be a cyber bully and it probably is coming from a place of jealousy.

Robert doesn't need to prove anything to anybody.

I don't either but I do get on some people's nerves for being insecure and not confident. I did message a tenant this weekend and tell her that our arrangement wasn't working for me anymore, and noticed an IMMEDIATE change in her attitude.

I ditto what Bonanza said about you speaking at a LL meeting. I have received so much information from your posts that I file away in my what to do if xxx happens file.

Have you ever thought about writing a book? It would be fascinating to read!

Thank you for all your time to help educate me so I can elevate our business!

Onward and Upward!

A Netflix or Amazon series could be so much more interesting than a book. I don't have any of thsoe internet TV subscriptions, but I would be tempted to get one.

Now, who should play Robert? And which companies are likely to produce the series based on the types of productions they have produced before?

Six degrees of separation is a thing, and Hollywood likes to produce series about people even tangentially in its orbit.

Robert has Hollywood connections. I can see this thing happening. Just send the right production company a link to this thread.

Second thought... Book only.

Jeffrey, having Robert J as a speaker would make me sign up for the next convention today! But, could we source some clear face masks so I can lip read? Not for speakers, when a room is quiet, I can hear fairly easily, and, of course, speakers wouldn’t need to be masked because they are a cow’s length away from others ( that’s the Wisconsin way to measure six feet…, started by New Glarus brewing)

And I KNOW the room would be quiet and attentive to hear Robert J.

Thanks everyone, I actually felt a tear running down my cheek. It's nice to know that sometimes people take away something useful from my posts.

Thanks again for you kind thoughts

Robert J,

To the real Robert, please ignore the troll. I appreciate your posts.

You have have earned that gray hair Robert

I value experience.

So please turn that M1 at the troll.

It is one thing know the field, it is another thing be practicing in it for as long as you have.

Knew it wasn't you right off the bat. Was no J on the name.

Personally i thought it was funny. I love your intro on each post to be honest. It's got to be someone who knows you and frankly wouldn't be surprised if they were just pulling you leg.

I also would not be surprised if it was a joke that landed wrong. The original poster will need more practice before trying to get a job as a Saturday Night Live writer. The writing reminded me of a young relative who had an exaggerated and funny imitation of his church pastor. Although it was exaggerated, he hung on every word of the pastor and adored him.

And if the original poster was actually serious, then the post backfired big time.

I do love Robert J's methods of making points real, and not just abstract.

I appreciate Robert J's post very much.

Robert J, thank you for the information that you are willing to share with us and educate us on. I would also like to hear you speak at a convention and would like to read any book that you may write in the future. I always enjoy your post and look forward to them.

I learn more from Robert J than anyone else on this board.

Will the real Robert J [CA] please stand up. haha

I think Clint Eastwood should play Robert J. At least that is my mental picture when I read your posts.

I appriciate your posts.. are some of them a little out there..sure but peple are crazy and we have all been in crazy situations. Some of your posts are SPOT ON.
