how about this,
a few years ago i applied to a manufacturer to become a
service center.
filled out all the papers, and was then told that i must but
million dollar liability before they would authorize me, i
only carried half million at that time.
well, i bought the extra insurance and sent in the proof, and
then they said sorry but we dont need anyone in your area
right now.
i laugh about it now, but not at the time.
i now carry million anyway.
