What Do You Lose Money On?


Is there a type of work you have found that you don't make out as well as you would like? Do you sub out that work? Do you just stay away from it? Will you take on that type of work for a good customer to keep them happy or to impress a new customer?

Re: What Do You Lose Money On?


Not that we lose money at it, just don't want to get involved in digging in many of the roads in Stamford and Greenwich. Not geared up for it ie. steel road plates, trucks to haul a small amount of blacktop to close up road, plus manpower. I sub that stuff out when we get it.
