My 2017 car tag was 250 this year. Not bad for a pretty damn new vehicle. This state bases it on size and age of vehicle. I don't think all states do that.

I kinda laughed and said "you'll be close to 2,000 for that tag". I was right.

I wish they'd do multi-year or lifetime like some states do.  At least our vehicles are 2 year regs.  I think my Jeep is about $115 or so (the ham radio plates add about $12, iirc), and the SRT-4 is half that.

Yep.  You just need a flat surface on the scope mount which most have.  Just tilt it upward and rotate the scope.

That's the problem with many small/medium businesses.

That shit don't fly when the GM answers up to a CEO who is held accountable to a board and shareholders.

Wife has a bunch of GMs reporting to her, each responsible for multi-billion/year business units, they are either aligned with company goals and delivering without causing problems or they are gone.

IMO, a large part of the problem is the regional manager. He does not comprehend the realities of HVAC in this area and that our selling season is different than the gulf coast. So the GM is doing what he’s been told to do, but it does not work as well as they want to here.

It’s also absurd to drop pricing to sell a job without having the customer give anything up. IMO, it makes us look like cheats and word like that gets around in this town.

Our reputation does not support our pricing

Mainly because we include a 10 year labor warranty. Our competition offers it as an option.

We do not remove it to give you a better price or a way to really judge which company is a better value to you.

Oh well

You have to know your market and one thing sales people do all the time is ignore the local guys like you that know their AO. Stupidity, arrogance or whatever it is I don't know, but I see that a lot even in my oil and gas business. I worked around a shit ton of consultants who thought they could sell anything to anyone and it just doesn't work that way



Yep

It's almost like the market gets to dictate what the ceiling is for the selling price and who your competition is.

Weird

But I guess since I don't have an MBA, I'm just being difficult and not getting on board.
Oh you don't have your MBA? This conversation is over and consider our friendship terminated
Jeeez, all this fucking time I thought I was talking to a smart guy and now I find out you're not an MBA


MBAs are a waste of time.

They are damned near a prerequisite for being a GM with this company.

Solid plan, the only flaw I see is that then I'd have a stack of pancakes that I rubbed my dick on for breakfast.

Just toss the one on top.

Then I lose a pancake.

Just close your eyes and eat it anyway
