I have to clear the air, and I have to do it now.
I am sitting here in tears writing this because it has been something that has been long coming. I sit here today with negative $700 in my checking account. The balance in my business account is a mere $360.00. Nathans truck is out for repossession and I pray that I can pay my rent next week. I have to look at my little girl and tell her no, you cannot have new markers or a coloring book. Business has been horrible since we started, I of course smile and say Business is good. I was laid off from work exactly 1 year ago today. I have worked at Wendy's, Lowe's and many other places, only to be let go over and over due to downsizing and being lowest on the totem pole. I have sent over 300 resumes in the last 6 months looking for employment. Nathans hours have been cut from working 10 hours over to barely getting 30. Our pressure washing customers can't pay on time and were lucky to even get paid.
Our equipment is the last thing we have left that is actually ours. Yes, I lowball jobs, but that lowball job will put dinner on the table. Yes I am sorry to Matt and everyone else that I have to undercut, but if you had to look into the eyes of your little girl you would understand. And just to clear this up we have not even done a job this year to date. I spend my time looking for jobs not calling customers.
Dan - You are the most sincere good hearted person I have ever met and I apologize from the bottom of my heart that I have not paid you. I am completely embarrassed, there are no words that can express how bad I feel. I should have emailed or called, but I didnt know what to say. I do owe you every penny and more. I would honestly like to call you and talk to you in person, you deserve that. I am going to pay you your money, I promise you that.
I am not looking for sympathy out of this thread, I just dont want to hide and act like everything is okay, its not. Soon our equipment may be for sale, Its just hard to hold on.
Matt - I am honestly sick of you at this point. I have NEVER slandered your name or knowingly underbid you. I am not sure why you love to bash on us....But, here you go please use this post in your advertising against me....I am sure it will help you get customers.
In closing I love this board and all of its members, you are good hard working people.
