footprints on my ceiling...

My first car in 2001 was an old 1988 Honda Civic.  It was my baby.  The only problem was that it did not start in the sun.  Yes, i'm serious -  it did not start if it was sunny out.  I called it "the night rider."  

After asking around for weeks, we found a guy who knew how to fix it.  Turns out, it was only a $50 item called a main fuel relay.  Once it would get to a certain degree in the car, hairline fractures would expand and disconnect.  Therefore, the fuel pump could not turn on and the car would not fire up. 

It was a relatively simple fix...but it took asking the right person to figure it out.   The car never had a problem on the sunny days ever again.

This is pretty much the case with trying to accomplish anything that is not the "norm".  Finding the right person who knows how to solve an issue takes time.  Nothing big can be done alone.  Nothing.

Some people's weaknesses are other people's strengths.  In order for a company to survive the constant battles, all weaknesses must be protected by the others strengths.

So, on Thursday, when I am sitting in front of some homemade stuffing, mashed potatoes, corn, and some cranberries, Ill be thinking about how lucky we as a four year old company are to find a solid team of people that have the answers.

Thanks gang.



Day or night... we will be ready.
