A friend was telling me this morning that he hates working with a group or let me say he hates jobs that involve too many processes with different people and his reasons are value, he said not everyone will put an effort just like you will do and it can be frustrating.
Things like this are inevitable when working with people and I know their nonchalant attitude must have pissed you off a lot because of your dedication to work.
The opportunity might be completely gone, but I believe that you might still be able to work something out now that the state manager is involved. Looking at it OG, have you thought about owning some trucks too?
Yeah, working with others can be complicated and frustrating although we need to find ways to do it as we can't keep everything and everyone at arm's length all the time.
I've not thought about owning trucks, it's not quite as simple as all that. The company I work for has hundreds of them so it's easy to win big contracts and have back ups available. Here, a prime mover, say a Kenworth K200, costs about $500,000AUD a trailer is about $100,000AUD on top and that's money I don't have. It's not what I'd want to do anyway.
Thanks for your comment and thoughts.
Wow, that's quite a lot of money to begin with. It is true that we just have to learn to work with people.
