Yeah last summer was weird...not the best but not the worst either. I've talked to a lot of the local distributors who seem to all be hoping for a hot hot april.

I don't think we ever had a below freezing day all winter

No, calls I ran. Telemarketeers= about 50! Bad enough they call but when they call one of my older numbers I have to forward it cost ME a phone charge every time! It's counted as an outgoing call.

6 calls this month.

Lol using tapatalk and I forget to shut down the software. I just started working there a few months ago and havent gone on the road yet just been working in the shop, but even for us its been abnormally slow this winter. we have work just alot of guys there isnt enough at the moment. I used to work.for another company in Rockaway over the summer.

Morris County haha... I see you work for Air Group..either your online all day at home (which means not working) or accessing this by phone (which means not too busy) but that means work must be realllly slow over there because thats a big company that does a lot of work in this area

What part of morris county?

Morris County here as well. From "sources" I know, I hear that it's slow all over north jersey area so don't feel so bad if business is slow. Just hope for heat wave sooner than later...

yeah I'm up in Morris county it was really warm here today, this winters been real bad for heating calls! We haven't had much work mostly commercial applications but very few residential. Last summer was such a up and down summer too I'm hoping we have a good summer to carry us.

Crazy weather good for me.

Here outside Chicago it has sucked all winter! They just said it's the 4th warmest winter in a century. Sucks.
I don't know about other folks but even in the best of times it is dead from Feb. to late May. Now add on this economy and warm winter.......

Warm Weather NJ/Northeast

Hello all. Just wondering how these past few warm weeks are treating your business. Here in NJ things are slow and we are trying to find some filler work to pass the time. Too soon for spring maintenance as well, that typically starts in April for us. Well, just wondering how things are out there and I hope things aren't as bleak for all. Does anyone else want summer to start immediately?
