boardupking
I live on the south side of Chicago. I work for a board-up service, on call 24-7-365. I cover a 7-county area, and think i've seen it all, until, something new pops up. I see fires, cars that crash into buildings, break-ins, and way too many vaccant houses that need to be boarded up. I love what I do and have been at it for about 7 years.
