I have a very different business. Only $6MM in sales last year with 13
employees. I've resisted the urge to grow too quickly - that's when
things get out of hand.

Not that different. Mine was (is) a small business, a bit larger than
yours, but still under 50 employees.

My problem wasn't with the size of the company. It was, and still is, a
close knit group of talented and dedicated people. It was dealing with
the big boys that started driving me nuts. The bulk of our contracts come
from large companies .... usually (but not always) military or DOD primes.

We deal with building contractors and subs. We drink, fish, eat, and
socialize with them often. They are regular people - not the suit and
tie types. Several are multi-millionaires but they are still regular
people. No politics or appointments with the guy on the 10th floor. I
got an invitation to an Easter party from our #5 customer today. They
are good people that appreciate honest service.

Compared to you gentlemen, my buisness is microscopic.

I have three employees.

me, myself, and I.


And I like it that way, and I do "all right"
