I have gotten a ton of calls and emails. It looks like all of Les pumps are going to auction. That is just what i hear and Brundage Bone is taking over the Accounts. Good for Brundage. I personally think the operators will be much better off working for Brundage.

Hey Todd, if your comment about being nice is for me, I didn't say anything out of line.  Why did you delete my  post?  All I did was ask a question and explain how I came about the information.  What is your problem?   You see something you don't like on here now and you delete it?  Why don't you just call it concretesissies.com.  How come you didn't delete tay tay's post?  Oh, I forgot you pick and choose who can post and who can't.  No wonder Bob is pissed at you.

TayTay, do you work for one of the companies?  Why do you say Les's pumps are going to auction?

Todd - just a little confused here though.  The post is titled that Brundage Bone takes over Pumpco.  However, the body of the post states that all of Les' pumps are going to auction and that Brundage would take the accounts.  (as if the customer has  no choice whom they would use for their pumping).  Also it states the operators will be much better off working for Brundage than Pumpco - but Brundage is not buying Pumpco??  A little clarity in that post might help those that work for Pumpco on this site that don't seem to know this information.

It will all come out in the next few days. I really dont want to spend too much time here talking about BB biz. I just wanted to brake the news story. I am sure everyone will know everything soon.

It would seem the rumors about Pumpco are true. All of the employees still have a lot of unanswered questions. Only time will tell what will become of the people and the parts dept. But even if you don't or never worked there, think about this, Pumpco started over 45 years ago......Sad but true.

 So in other words its the same ole same ole for BB? They got the phone number, the employees but this time they dont have to deal with ANY aquired equipment... All the Pumpco operators get their yellow booms replaced with orange ones and become BBCP employees...

 A bit of advice for the pumpco boys... The people showing up with your new equipment etc. could very well be your replacements! It's time to start showing early and staying late. Seriously! This is not a negative statement towards BB, they simply dont deal with any BS.

This post is no rumor I was there Saturday for the meeting in Ft Worth, with Jim Ainsworth, Bruce Young and Gregg White. We all filled out new employee packages and went thru orentation. It was all done very professional. Yes the pumps go to Auction,thats what we were told,by Jim Ainsworth, as to why,if you watch the news at all you know why.As far I go I will not be making the move,I did not make the cut,only a selected few will go over.I was told that this morning. However when a door closes other opens up for this I am excited. I will still stay active on the web site, for it truly holds my way of staying in touch with FREINDS.

Talking about locations I wonder about the Nashville Office since  work is slow, I don't know how many pumps are in Nashville, I know Premier Pumping has over 18 booms on there lot. One bad thing about all the other pumps flooding the already bad resale values some buys can buy a pump thats a couple of years old and start a new business and really cut prices and kill everybody else who piad a higher price for a boom pump a year or so ago.

As far as I know I still have a job.Supposed to roll out of bed at 4am. I will not get into the political issues of everything. I still work there and refuse to jeopardize the great job I have or will have soon. Whether it is for Pumpco, Brundage Bone or whom ever it is. So ppl stop emailing me for the lowdown.
