They never got to enjoy what they worked so hard for.. So.. long story short.. I work, I pay the bills, but if I want to take a day or a week or a month off. I do.. life is too short to punch a time clock or feel like you are on one. I take on average 9 weeks vacation time per year, all major holidays and Elvis's birthday.. Hey, its my biz.. I make the rules..

Continue with the positive outlook, that is what makes a good service tech/salesman. Best to you in 08. Scott
