Appreciate it while you got it. I'm not hardly working at all. In other words many of us would take exhaustion any day over famine.

believe me wen i say i am grateful to be working. we are booked into the week after next and i am still freaked out everyday if the phone is not ringing..
i count my blessings every day when we leave the house.
as i tell my guys, you can pay your bills with too much money but cant pay them with not enough..work everyday you can and if things never dry up good for us..if they do we can say we did everything we could do..

My son had a 100 office chairs this AM, then they had a sewage job next door to one they did last night.

He's beat, but he's young, I think he'll survive! :mrgreen:

Worked all day, and up until 9:00 tonight on a commercial job. I try to work solid 6 days a week. Here lately I have managed to fill my days ok, but it's been a day at a time. Still not booked solid a week ahead, but every day I seem to get enough calls to fill the next day.

Weird ...

wow..things seem to be slow but manageable for most. the thing that bothers me most is the sporadic phone..it will ring 4-5 times one day and the next day we will book 10 jobs then the day after that nothing but crickets..that is when i get nervous. i all in every hr or so to see if the phone started to ring yet..michel always tells me to chill out, it always books up. i just got used to seeing the boards full well before the week started not as the week starts.
