This is Manuals Plus. I've been in conversation with them for a lot of the
year, talking about the where and when for the final closedown. This is the
final closedown, and they're going to start throwing the inventory out
Monday. The project I'm doing is to go onsite on Monday and Tuesday and
take the unique items in their warehouse (it's estimated at 21,000 but I
was being careful) and put it into boxes, and then put those boxes into a
nearby storage unit while the next steps are considered/taken.

I drove down to Baltimore and back yesterday (Friday), a 500 mile trip, to
ensure I could show I was a real human being and going to do this.It is
going to be a very busy Monday and Tuesday.
