Summary is nobody with a journeyman card will accept less than that. Period. Even if DBA was in place or revoked. NO is screwed because if a journeyman can find work somewhere else (and they can), they will leave the NO job market forever. (My plant has been around for 100 years. You should see some of the wiring messes we have.) > Good for you. Really! That is the responsible way to accept bids! Management would have my ass if they found out, but cheap doesn't save me money. And I like buying stuff like Minster presses which always cost at least 25% more than a Korean knockoff. http://www.minster.com (if you want to know more...) I would buy a 40 year old Minster press and retrofit it before I would buy a Korean press. Don't even ask me about a Chinese made press. > You and I seem to be on converging paths here.<G> As long as we don't discuss baseball and Blues music, we are covered.
