We have some good jobs to do, just no equipment here yet. I also have a list of projects for February for when we really get slow I just don't want to get into those right now and be tied up with low margin jobs when the good jobs start to roll in again.

I'm just more or less complaining because it's no fun sitting in my office all day while my guys are out working. You can only surf the forums for so long you know?

Patience Tony, I keep dreaming up ideas on new truck projects but right now I need to move some furnaces first. Our business is so dependent on the weather it's not funny, luckily it's cooling off right now so we should have plenty of service calls tomorrow. I really want to get going on the Fodge again, but I know as soon as I bring it back to the shop I'll get slammed with installs and it will just sit in the way. February it's coming in so I can finish it up while the guys are doing all these odd jobs I have lined up

My guys are probably saying the same thing about me!! I could always fire somebody, that always lifts my spirits

We've done a couple jobs like that though. I took my camper up and just made a vacation out of it while the guys drove back to town everyday.

Um, are you sure that was from lack of work to do, and not lack of work from you? That's a big cut!

Hell I've only been laid off for a week and everything is fixed and cleaned up. I'm bored out of my mind! I bought some leather and am making some ****** and spur straps just to keep busy. Hell I'm gonna go nuts when that's done.
