I'd be your worst customer

Oh Jezz I forgot to mention Bacardi in my list of national accounts.

Let me know when that HD gig comes through for you.

 

[Mule]

I think things will turn around very soon. It will a long time untill its back to normal, but we should at least get out of the gutter.....

Yes its too bad that folks are out of work, not fun at all....

Bob we have all been living in a big fake bubble of money for the last 10 years and Its going to be a long time before it gets to where it was again. Its time to pull out all the stops and forget of what it was like before. If folk cant find jobs as EC's maybe its time to "retool" There is still a nursing shortage in this country and from what many of you have been telling me about my wife, they can make lots of money and not much fear of losing their jobs. Not to mention the great health bennies. To many people just take the unemployment benefits without any thought as to going back to school. They just sit home and wait for the job to come knocking on their door.

I know what you mean brother. The recent events in the past year has really made me take another look at things. Me and my wife try to support local buisnesses as well. And I have donated some proffesional time at a local animal shelter and my wife (the nurse) has donated some of her time at a local nursing home. We all need to stand together.

Thanks for your caring.

 

[tonyou812]

Thanks for your caring.

And sarchasim is like a second language to me so Im right there with you. I take it you didnt listen to the President's speaches. It must be hard with all those cars going round and round. Hows that for sarchasim?

Seriously all, if your busy and the economy has not affected you consider yourself blessed, I have a lot of very talented friends out of work now and prospects for their employment are not looking good right now.

bob, we have let some people go...but the guys who are still working, are getting the same pay (or more) than they were 6 months ago...no one has taken a reduction....

but then again, we got out of resi service a while back, and commercial service is a different ballgame...

HD in NJ is sewn up by one company....and HD is their only customer...it's got the makings of a disaster...

Some of my buddies are thinking about doing other types of work.

To many people just take the unemployment benefits without any thought as to going back to school. They just sit home and wait for the job to come knocking on their door.

Yes some do, but believe it or not you are not the only one that has to earn their money to feel right about themselves.

Can't disagree there, they could be done tomorrow.

I dont think you and i ever agreed on anything in here. Your almost like my exact opposite. Almost like episode 33 Mirror Mirror, from Star Trek. Your the Evil Capt Kirk and Im the nice one. Or maybe im the evil and .....or you get the point.

 

[tonyou812]

What??.......

[iwire]

Not to keep this tiresome thread going but If you are giving me the eye roll and saying no kidding does it make sense to lower prices so no one makes any money...?:roll:

 

[iwire]

does it make sense to lower prices so no one makes any money...?:roll:

If the choice before me is either

A) Work harder for less money

B) Don't work, make no money

I have to say I am going with A.

 

[tonyou812]

well said and for the first time tonight I have no rebutle. To shay sir, it was a well fought debate.

 

[Fulthrotl]

He can walk on coals at three day seminars and do things others cant with that kind of safety net:wink:

it doesn't take a three day seminar to firewalk... you can teach someone
how to do it in about a half an hour..... teaching *why* it's important takes
much longer.

it's really not about fire walking. it's about learning how much fear controls
your life.

Right now, securing that next job at a reasonal rate, is top priority.
