There may be a few bugs in the new system, I got notifications one day from when people posted to this thread but not Today, I was wondering if Art was having a problem and had not posted his usual Morning greeting, came here to check and he had but I had not received the notification. Morning All.

morning Art you Off call this weekend?

I'm on call, but I doubt there will be one.

This summer has been my slowest yet. I lost at least seven Border's locations here, Micheal's crafts went with another service brokerage with which we are not affiliated, and our "number one" service broker has started running calls with their own, in-house guys. They try that every year or two, and it usually fizzles, but it will go on into the fall.

We took on some restaurant refrigeration work. The boss and I are the only ones who are really up to the task. I've used JP as a brain guy to help out with ideas when I get stumped. BUT, the environment is awful. Grease. Food. Noise. Feet. Demands. Time constraints. I'm not making enough for this BS.

I've gotten to the point of harassing Frank to come out and meet with his boss.

The 'recession' has finally hit the west coast of Canada too....
Had a competitor phone me yesterday and offer his 'client' list to me and he's heading to the Caribbean to work.
Many, many companies going under and more to come......we reap what we sow......been living on poor work ethic and entitlement for too long and then combine that with greedy dishonest banking/financial institutions and you got 'collapse'....

Our white house justice department just announced this week that the big banks would not be prosecuted for promoting investments to their clients while making plays using their OWN money that those investments would lose value.

This is hope and change.

We hope that we can keep our change.
