Melissa and Allan,
You guys should have NO guilt whatsoever. You're true class acts ALL THE WAY!! You always under-promised, and over-performed. You are kind and helpful, and sit among a very short list of people that I would trust in business.
I've drawn some fire on here for starting this, but i'm d**m glad I did. Some call it airing dirty laundry, others call it revealing the truth. All of you, please remember that it was ME that started this, not Melissa or Allan. They were quiet throughout this episode, I was the instigator. Direct criticisms about dirty laundry toward me, not them.
Have you guys ever considered moving?? A strong fabrication background would thrive in our oil patch you know...??!! Something with as many welds, cuts, and precision as a grapple would sell for $100,000 in the patch!!
You guys get a free week at my house in Canmore when it becomes a vacation rental.
-Jer.
ps - i agree that non-compete agreements are very useful. They are used as kindling to start my fireplace!!!
