    Things going on Part 2 of 2

    So,........ in my other post I make the comment to scaling back my operation...... well........ in the past 3 days I've been contacted to get restaurant equipment from a casino that's being remodeled, 4 cars, all the scrap from a HVAC company, a bunch of telecom equipment, & all the scrap from a boat shop, so yea.... back to the drawing board.......

    And when you say "No thank you" people stop asking if you want it. So there is the rub.

    I also cut back and stopped saying yes to most but also changed my business model to accommodate smaller amounts. I had to cut back because of health constraints, we all have things that shape what we can do. I wish you the best. Mike
