Speaking of crews out, we had crews out both Friday and Saturday night doing event cleanups.
Back in the saddle, well not me, with that kinda work. Nice for it to be open up again.

We had several events this week and 2020 graduation yesterday and 2021 graduation Saturday. They are booking the Fall like crazy already. Its sure looking better event wise.

5-6 years you'll be to old anyway. Time to do it is now. When your tired of it, just sell it.

I gave up fighting with her over this. I'm too old to also get divorced again. It was no fun the first time, and I'm sure the experience hasn't improved.

It’s too easy to look at someone else’s life and give advice based on your life. So, all I’ll say is that if you’re happy with things as they are, then stop thinking of starting your own business and settle into your sad miserable existence the way all LOOZERS do.

That's Jimmy's gig! I gotta find my own place in the sun. Besides, she isn't keen on me getting a bike either. She says I'll kill myself.

When is the last time you remember it being a simple owner/operator business model? That business setup is very different than a multi crew water damage business

First three years, 67-70 it was just my father. It was a part time gig that grew out of control by early 70's he hired a full time guy by mid 70' a couple of us would work after school, we were the 2nd crew. Summers were multiple crews, by 80's we were 3-4 crews.

So to answer your question, I saw it but really didn't experience it. It was already rolling when I got involved as an adult.

This is the truth.

She doesn't want me starting a business. So generally I'm just dreaming.

You can come work for me/with me so you don't have to start a business...and you'll have all the fame and splendor you always wanted...with a lot less overhead.

Richard Chavez and Son...

It worked pretty well for the son of the founder of our company. At their high point, they were doing almost 3 million a year.
