[QUOTE="DavisBeefmasters, post: 799147, member: 2263"] Suing --> costs too much money and nobody wins except the courts/lawyers Yelling / Screaming --> raises my blood pressure unnecessarily and usually without getting my intended result I typically choose the "confused" route... Tell your friend to call the sale barns and say that he/she is "confused" because they got a phone call from a guy that apparently thinks he sold a calf to that was not thrifty... but how could it be my calf because I only sell calves in month xx or month yy... I usually end with something like "wouldn't want to hurt anyone but how can we keep me from getting confused again since I always bring the cattle in myself (or use hauler ABC)?" This puts the sale barns on alert that there is an issue of confusion and puts the burden on them to verify in the future without naming names and stirring the pot too bad. [edited for REALLY bad typo -- sorry :oops: ] [/QUOTE]
