Jacob made a really good dent in the start-ups yesterday but unfortunately was on his own the entire day while I was with my wife with all her pre-operation appointments and some other personal matters we had to deal with. We are getting lawn aeration cancellations left and right, so I guess we won’t be able to test out or new awesome lawn aerator we picked up. We still have around 50 or so that haven’t given up on us yet.
We were supposed to be working on main & drain repairs all week, but the funeral last week, and other issues have kept us from those jobs. We have been forced now since we do not have adequate help on our workload to prioritize our major sprinkler repairs by the severity of their situation. For example, a main & drain that continually leaks while in the off position will have to take priority over ones that only leak when the water is turned on. I wish I had a better solution, but until people decide to get off their backsides and get a real job instead of sitting on the couch collecting unemployment, I do not see a change in our situation.
We always hope for reviews on Google, Yelp, BBB, etc., from the customers we visit, but it is a rare occurrence. Most do not leave reviews unless they are mad for receiving an invoice for a non-cancellation that they agreed to, however, yesterday we received a GREAT review on Yelp. It couldn’t have come at a better time as we work our butts off trying to reach everyone as quickly as we can. I did a screenshot of the review:
Today we are going to tie up a bunch of loose ends, and it is already the wee hours of the morning so will not be posting our route for today. Sorry if it is an inconvenience, but I am exhausted. Jacob was so tired when he got home he was in sleep land by 9:30. Of course, I never can get sleeping until 1 or 2 in the morning.
