I was just repeating what several of the employes told me before they packed up and left, maybe they didnt get the whole story either..The company that came in after them seems to be doing alright.Goes in the big end, comes out the little....sometimes

Jamie , I think you missed the point. No need to be rude.

Im sorry if I seemed rude. I appriciate what you guys are talking about, here in Boise we swap alot of work and I get frustrated at all the price cutting. I just get agravated at all the gossip that goes around, and the specific company that you were talking about helps me out alot with parts and pumps...they are some really good guys.Jamie

Well it seems this discussion is about me so I might as well chime in. The fellow from the Wall Company is 100 % right about what he heard.The fellow from Idaho is partially right as well.The price cutting that occurred here was pathetic injustice to the industry. However the same was mentality was going on in Eastern Washington as well. The price cutting in AZ was brutal, the mentality was to cut the price to achieve a market share and it spun out of control. The deal was good for me I am now four states away and have a 7 year no compete.When I took over the customer base there was no loyalty what so ever.We have less than 50% of the customers we took over how ever we are getting paid and have raised the level to the big two here. We have done fine here; we have done well due to our professionalism, excellent equipment and our excellent personnel. and an on time service.

Thanks for clarifying that. I have respect for the person that fesses up. And thats the kind of boss i would like to have. Live and learn eh ? Good luck to ya !Theres a fine line between the water and the fishing pole !

dONT TA LUV IT WHEN GOOD COMPETITORS DO MORE THAN SELL PRICE. If every time you dont get a job its because some body cut Your price it than IT must also be true that when you get ajob you cut your competitors price INERESTING!!!!
