Hi John,
Nice out that way. I used to be up in La Crescenta. Moved to Oregon in 92. Never been back.
So true about more than one way. I found that in training I would demand they stay with exactly my method for at least a week, then they adapt and find their on path. In that, I found new ways to do manufacture things as well. Just while in training for a week, best to keep a focus.
So true about GPs.
Your a brave soul to stay in So. Cal. When I moved I had to change over to all shipping. Never really looked for work in Oregon, they just seem to find you. I had no local business for 2 years.
Congrats on the building. Nice to have your own place. I rented, even up here. Then a friend of mine from the bay area talked me into placing a mobile on my property. Seemed really strange for the first year, but it's the way to go. My rent was 750.00 a month back then, 92 to 96.
Now the guy from the bay area lives up here too. He's 27 miles further up the Mckenzie River than I am. He makes a 4 way syringe and also makes cabinets for dental offices, brings them down to the bay area to Dexta. Dexta does the selling.
Mike.
