I had breakfast with Harold this morning. First thing out of his mouth was, "Have you changed your mind yet?"
We had a little bit of a BS session about Beaufort. Inventory started last Friday and so far, they found a high dollar machine they didn't know they had and are missing two Stihl rail saws at $3K each. H told me that Al said two days, top, for inventory. We laughed and laughed. Last year, it took two weeks. Usually, Steve Sweeny set up the inventory. He retired back in October and they haven't yet replaced him. So this month should be interesting.
I did ask again if Harold has considered retiring. He told me that he has the letter written, he's just not sure when he wants to submit it. I suggested sooner rather than later because the MMs may decide for him.
The thread is not quite dead yet.
