I wasn't really talking about price Tim. I was talking about the amount of jobs. You can just as easily plug in your numbers into the equation, I am not busy with new customers ( I am getting a few) but repeats. My gripe is the last 2 days was 2 jobs and both took all day. I would have rather been going to different houses and building my database. I am more comfortable on the move.
Yesterday I was doing tie, area rugs, upholstery, drapes and had my cleaning crew in cleaning the house big bill but it took all day.

Today I did the Elks lodge and I always give them a discount but it was 1100 sq ft VCT and about 2000 sq ft of carpet and the place was gross. All the while the phone was ringing off the hook and I had the guys doing a big job in Marston mills.

You have more time to communicate with people who call, e-mail and your staff when you get a break every two hours

This week is spring break. Typically a slow week here for what ever reason. Actually had the start to a decent week scheduled then canceled due to extreme weather( we are under severe weather alerts as well as flooding). It picked a good week to rain :twisted: . Don't mind being slow so much this week. We do have a small restoration job going but other than that, next week spring cleaning should finally break loose. Anticipating big smiles.

It's sunny and beautiful here, but I'm still here all day. BNI is today's highlight!

We have missed the worst of it so far today. But this next band of storms is gonna hurt. I am seriously thinking of moving to freaking Arizona. Maybe Nevada. :evil:

I have only met one cleaner who lives out in the desert, and he has no ass, skinny legs and talks like Brad Fensterfocker on steriods.

You don't wanna move there.

I don't think Alabama is officially in tornado alley, but we have our fair share of storms. No tornados around me of late, but we sure have had our share of rain lately. It's storming now and we are under a tornado watch as I type this.

I can still here the tornado sirens I experienced when I lived in Greenville. Scared the hell out of me the first time.

We dodged another one. Rotational storm went south.

Whew!

Still liking the looks of a dry climate.
