"We have a customer up in Pleasant Hill, Iowa, that I call every Friday to see if he needs anything. I called him on a Friday. He didn’t need anything. Well, then he called Monday and said, “Did you put any hangers on that truck?” I said, “No, sir, I sure didn’t because you told me you didn’t need anything.” He said, “Well, we’re out.” So I called another location that we ship hangers to, and they said I could borrow a pallet. So M&B paid to pick up the pallet of hangers from one customer to carry it to another to keep them from running out until I could get a truckload up there."
