Well I hope our industry can handle more bad news. We should have some industry related news by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. I found out today but no official release until tomorrow.

I think there will be an official press release tomorrow and I want to honor them by not braking the news until the press release. So if you know or find out please dont say anything on the message board until it is official. Nobody can do anything about it so we all can wait a few more hours.

Schwing America Files for Chapter 11 in Minnesota

wow! this isn't a good thing, but it's hardly a surprise. all of the manufacturers are guilty of flooding the market with machines making it increasingly harder to find and sustain work for the owners. my boss is equally guilty for overloading his fleet, along with another company who shall remain nameless *coughbrundagebonecough*. the other problem that came with too many machines was lack of training. for too long now the only qualification needed for too many of these companies was a CDL. now maybe we can get back to how it should be and train people to be pump operators, not pump drivers.

this is very bad news for the entire industry  :(

Bankruptcy it part of American business. No worries!
