In the "D" many people refuse to deal with anyone who possesses a 313 area code. 'Nuff said. It's reality folks, and we do not cloud these issues on ICMAG>

If anything EVER Feels wrong. Abort. Period.

If you put any real time in as a head you would know how the game works

its called paying your dudes

nfn if you don't pay them up front your gonna pay them later

but I am very observant and prepared...I can almost sense a bad situation before it happens ..6th sense..

and probably like so many other ICmag members I'd like to think I can too. That 6th sense has saved me plenty of times before...and other times, I've felt that 6th sense telling me there's something wrong, I've disregarded it and forged on with gritted teeth anyway and all way good.

Many years ago I was meeting a guy in a coffee shop to drop off a kilo of hash. As usual I did a walk around the area first, but this time something was not right, I couldn't put my finger on it but that 6th sense was screaming in my ear "get the phuck outta here"..so I did another walk around, couldn't see anything so I walked into the coffee shop, did the swap over and left, still feeling the heebie-jeebies big time.

Next day I read a story in the newspaper about a huge heroin bust in the same street very close to where the coffee shop was that happened about 5 minutes after I left. I knew there was something wrong about the vibe in the street but I didn't see the undercover cops that were stacked around the area but my 6th sense did.

Shit, I will be getting up to the country soon, but for the last year, after a decade+ on 2 acres + in NorCal - Now, in the Metro Area - Another Med State - there's two houses, just a driveway away, and I manage to keep it down-low. Major balancing act. Being a good neighbor, yet keeping 'em ALL at arms length, so no one feel's it's OK to visit whenever they want. Phone calls first, or no answer door.

It takes years of experience and study. read the old-skool growers. Security practices are VERY important. No one gets to know. Very few people even know where I live. It takes a special person to put it all together. I am so careful it's absurd sometimes. But, by doing my protocols, I do not have to worry. After 12 years, I am still just as careful, but confident that if I continue such due diligence, I will 99% be OK. The horror stories in Mendo were amazing. Some were Urban Rural legends, some NOT>. Now, in da Mitten, Metro for now, gotta watch your culo even more. So many weapons, so many Bruthas. But, people are a bit more clueless than the Em Tri, to say the least. A good thing.

Oh no, not another one of these threads! These always develop bad cases of AIDS

Alot of good advice so far but i really liked this bit bolded above, pretty much sums it up for me. It also helps being 6ft + with self defence experience, a high level of fitness, as well as an absolutely zero tolerance for morons & hooliganism. Never work with retards only smart ppl, or even better work by yourself and just have one or 2 contacts.

Haha. Not. My roots in the "da Motor Shitty" go deep. I am not the only one with this sentiment. In fact, I was talking with a very accomplished grower just yesterday, who brought up this idea without prompting from me. 313 = no business deals. I have arrived at this after experiences warrant it, and that is why I do it MY (and many others) way. Same thing I did on the West Coast. Talk ebonics, Be White or Black, "Sorry, I am all out." Too many Guns in this very angry Metropolis. I take NO chances. And Thus, do not have to worry. It works.
