Emerald City: "Loss"

Since we're still on the subject of moving, how many of you have had friends bail on your moving help requests after they've said yes and you've bought the pizza and beer? Hopefully it wasn't because they knew you'd plop down and goof around on facebook while they lugged boxes out to the UHaul. As many moves as I've been through, I've had plenty of absentees and I've had a handful of folks I wish would go home early because they were making things more difficult.
The best move ever though? Was when I had the money to pay someone else to do the moving for me. We packed the boxes. They loaded everything on the truck. Two guys accomplished more in an hour than I could have all day. Granted they did a bit of damage. But, ultimately, it was worth it. Heavy ass bedroom furnishings go upstairs. "Yessir". Big wrap around couch goes in that corner. Washer and Dryer need to be stacked in this tiny ass closet. Best part about paying them? They don't leave when you get dressed up as Spock. Hell, they don't even seem to get offended when you call them red shirts in anticipation of their imminent demise.
For the record, I didn't mind Star Trek Into Darkness. There were things that bothered me here and there. But it was an enjoyable watch. Not gonna talk about it, since it's still new to redbox/dvd/bluray and you know... spoilers.
