Justtrimmin,
So far so good, here in my area of New York State. I just don't like getting these calls. Maybe it's a fluke, but it does get my attention. I fish in the western part of the state in the fall. Last year when I went out there, it looked awful. Those guys are starving. If you want to find a contractor out there, you just hang out at the welfare department.
I understand that Ohio is very bad right now. I feel sorry for you guys. This business is tough enough when things are good. When times are tough, one mistake can set you back for a long time.
Glass,
Aw, '91 wasn't so bad! I stuck to my guns price-wise and took in $40.00 for a service call that winter. If I didn't have to eat, I could have used it to pay off some of the interest on the credit card debt. I was able to recover in less than a decade. Gees, all you guys do is *****, *****, *****...
