easy-lift guy replied to Ross Macneil's topic in General chat
Mesterh, 100% is good enough for me. Tough enough to say your sorry much less go back in time. My TARDIS is in the shop ATM. easy-lift guy -

Happy ending for your hospital tree story. He would have been sacked if on my payroll. Gross incompetence is far to expensive to maintain when running a business. easy-lift guy -
So if you get 60% of your jobs you bid on and you have all of your fixed and variable cost covered and you still have no profit left for yourself at the end of the work week is that really healthy or do you most people like to work for nothing? easy-lift guy

"healthy ratio" What does that mean?, would a unhealthy ratio be 30% or would it only be 1/2 as healthy as a healthy ratio. Please explain, if you can? easy-lift guy

Holy case of the wrong job at the wrong place Batman. That elderly couple must have been devastated. How do you restore what has been destroyed by such an act of incompetence? easy-lift guy -
If you are getting 90% of your bid's, one of Two things are occurring. Your working for your customers and your help. Or your covering your expenses and have little or nothing left for yourself at the end of your work week?. If after all of you fixed and variable cost are met and you have actual PROFIT to call your own at the end of the work week, that's great!, other wise sit down and review all of your cost/expenses. You may be surprised how much you actually net every week after your expenses. Good hunting. easy-lift guy.

Don't feel so bad it is just as bad on the other side of the pond. I will attend trade shows and have folks come by my booth and say they are really interested in my products and when I get back to the office and give the inquire a call back or email say within Two weeks after the event, it like who are you? and why are you bothering me??. I politely remind them about the product and their apparent interest at the time of the show, some remember some have real short term memories. Same with my suppliers for raw materials to make finish product. I believe many employers and companies around the world are having similar problems with under qualified staff to save money and cut back on expenses. It's not pretty but we have to do the best we can to keep our customers happy and content. easy-lift guy

Graham, You sir are Spot On!, I could not agree with you more and the corn lobby here in the states is doing all it can to not lose their business for the sake of the rest of the country picking up the tab. I hope the people of the UK don't fall for the con game that many here in the States did only so that the corn producers could line there pockets with cash. easy-lift guy

Folks, stick with real Diesel. Don't waste your time and money trying to make it yourself. I know of people here in the states with less than happy results, usual results include but are not limited to the following: clogged injectors, moisture build-up in fuel lines,and tank.trouble starting, and rough running. Since the adding of Ethanol to petrol fuel mixtures of up to 10% the amount of damage to Two/Four cycle equipment has run into the Millions if not Billions of Dollars nation wide. I will never understand why a country as blessed with the natural resources we have could ever want or need to use food stocks for fuel needs. Don't fall for it, unless you don't mind stepping in at the same time. easy-lift guy

Nice vid, might I suggest slowing down a bit. By slowing down a bit the jerky action will in turn be at a Min. Remember what you see is nearly the same as what the camara see's! Did noticed the car entering the work area, idiot!, good eye and your groundie got the car out of the way before any accident could occure. Was wondering why same area in question was not coned off?. Thanks for the vid. easy-lift guy

Wootton Bassett: a mark of respect after a job well done!
easy-lift guy replied to button1803's topic in General chat
So they have served and made the ultimate sacrifice, hence they will be honored and never forgotten!. I commend the people of Wootton Bassett for their respect of the fallen and returning. On behalf of the arm services of the US I salute the United Kingdom. easy-lift guy USA. -
s.mouse, might I suggest in the future when it comes to payment for services rendered if the customer get's a bit silly make this statement very clear: " I have an arrangement with my bank I don't extend credit for services rendered and in return the bank does not do tree work or any other type of work" End of subject. Otherwise get all of the rest of your ducks in a row and file the paper work for small claims court. Good hunting. easy-lift guy.

Good for you Geoff. Stop them or at least slow them down. Never take any location or situation for granted. easy-lift guy -
My guess is some sort of mine clearing device. elg

Clever and dangerous. The concept is simple enough, however with zero safety provisions in place I suspect the folks from Sthil are busy tracking down the creator and issuing cease/desist orders for using said device with a Sthil saw. IMO the concept has potential with the proper safe guards in place. easy-lift guy.
