  1. I'm going to go quietly

    Then you show poor leadership also. No respect intended.
  2. I'm going to go quietly

    I think it shows poor leadership. You infarct your kids (me), not your managers in public. Pull your managers aside and speak to them in person and in private. But..........this is a private forum and you can run things how you see fit even it there is the most glaring bias Ive ever encountered on a BBS.
  3. what size pump can I run?

    4@3500 5.6@2500
  4. lack of confidence in GM

    What part is it exactly? The part that connects the steering wheel shaft to the gearbox?
  5. I wonder how hot water gets (roughly) when its in bypass? I ask because my cat pump has been going for about a year now running exclusively on hot water. Anywhere from 110 to about 190 degrees depending on location. It also runs in bypass every night on every job for about 5 minuets at the longest (getting hose from kitchen to roof). I put a 1 foot bypass hose on it, the pump does not have a hot seal kit. I have another electric cat pump with internal bypass thats pushing 2 years old, again run exclusively on hot water. Conversley, long ago I had a cheapo general EZ pump, I accidentally hooked it up to hot water once (didnt know outside spigot was hot). Half way through the job it wasnt building pressure, the pump never performed right again. My point is, you say you have a cat pump, you use it seldomly, I wonder if you have to do anything at all?
  6. lack of confidence in GM

    Cant believe you cant find an aftermarket part somewhere.
  7. Change of scenery

    So your saying theres a bias on this board.....................nahhhhhhhhhhh
  8. Lord, what a bunch of yes men.
  9. Honda vs. ZongShen engins

    Then you dont understand physics. A piston will displace X amount of water per stroke. The only way to get more gpm out of a pump is to spin it faster. If you use a larger tip and get more flow then your engine was not turning at its rated rpm with the smaller tip.
  10. K9 unloader not unloading

    Not to highjack the thread (well yeah I am) but whats the difference in K-5s, 7s and 9s?
  11. Business from websites?

    Yeah I know a guy from PA who did just that. Now hes getting calls from 120 location customers.
  12. I made $2800 in my first year in biz. The good thing about having good "day" job is you have the luxury of making mistakes that wont cause you to wonder how your going to buy food tomorrow.
  13. Business from websites?

    When a new phone book arrives I check to see if Im listed. Im usually done with that by the time I reach the garbage can, and there it goes. Cant remember the last time I actually used a phone book for its intended purpose. 100% of my new customers have come from the web since last fall.
  14. Amazing how human nature likes to get complicated right off. KISS
  15. Who has Worker's Comp?

    Holy cow, just some quick math using the rates I pay puts your payroll at almost half a million. You must be bigtime, or paying too much...one.
  16. In between 2 pw Help!!

    Are you going into the fingerprint off handrail removal business or bridge demolition business?
  17. PT state forum - closed....

    I was gonna say, I get banned for even thinking a conservative thought, thick skinned? Pfffttt
  18. Not sure what a srum is and in my opinion I am the best.
  19. Are we professionals?

    Very easy goal to attain.
  20. Brings up a good question, I seem to be backwards on many Ive seen. I have a male QC on the hose end, female on whatever Im connecting to it. My reason is when winding the hose up a female (being larger) will catch on more stuff and will wear out faster from being drug on concrete/asphalt. A male QC is smaller, doesnt even touch the ground most of the time, and when it does need replaced is much cheaper. Which way do yall do it?
  21. Supply Hose Reel Restrictive?

    Pretty good Doug, went over 3 heads in a row
  22. Supply Hose Reel Restrictive?

    Yeah ok old man, shoot any cannonballs lately?
  23. The best machine manufacter

    I dont live in Arizona, so my customers expect me to have half a brain and not think just because something cost more means its better. But I also dont wash cars, not something you need half a brain to do anyway.
  24. The best machine manufacter

    Again, justification for a higher price. In my 44 years Ive found there is NO direct correlation between price and quality.
