mtnpumper - there is a big company down here in TX that I have seen charge less than that. It's stupidity. Everybody 'says' they want to get prices up but they don't act on it. Easy to say at 'sales meetings' but I guess harder to say to the customer.

I really can use the work but I Didn't do it, I gave them a higher number that was fair but did not hear back, you cant make any money at that rate, bobcats get 125 an hour and there 50 thousand dollar pieces of equipment, booms are 2 or 3 or 4 hundred thousand dollars, unbelievable, supply and demand///
