    I admire you tremendously.. You went from E-Waste "Dabble" to "Dynamite!" in a VERY short period of time.
    My hat is off to you sir!
    You must be one helluva networker and businessman!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    Thank you sledge, i post these photos and different things not to show off, but to inspire the new guys and gals, what i do is keep it as simple as possible, never say no to a customer, provide the best possible service, and always have a positive attitude, and the most important thing is be honest, if you follow those those five steps, the business will come to you as it has for me over the years.

    No apology needed- for this is not a boastful thing (not to me anyway) And you are 100% correct.
    For all of you out there: THIS is what can be accomplished with those great business ethics he stated, as well as, motivation and perseverance!
    Good On my man! Good On!
