I'm a small business owner in the SF Bay area. So small, in fact, it's just me, a truck, a trailer, and a dog. It is a grind and a hustle out here, and we can't run a deep margin to deal with big mechanical issues... unfortunately, we've had just about the biggest mechanical issue possible. This truck blew a whole motor, and it's in the shop now getting ready to replace the whole thing. The entire bill is over 30k, and we're going to go into debt in order to get the truck rolling again. This puts the business in a precarious spot, having no liquid funds left, and debt to pay off on top of the operating costs. Not a good spot. I’ve never been one to admit when I need help, but I’m being encouraged to just trust people more. If I've earned any favor out there in the internet world, I'd greatly appreciate anything that can soften the hit. Thanks
