I remember, Scott. It's just great you've not only kept your chin up, but likely outran a few competitors that fell by the wayside in the "grizzly" process.

That is somewhat amazing that you were able to get all your employees back. First of all, they must have all been worth keeping, remarkable in itself. Second of all, that is nearly unprecedented combined loyalty on their part. I say only somewhat amazing because it is kind of obvious you care about your guys and I am sure they know it. Sure they came back when they could. You are the kind of boss everybody wants, but not everybody gets. America is still a great place to live and work because of men like you. Thank you.

With new-found efficiencies, and all these good men, you might bring in the kind of future reserve to weather the next crisis even better. There are no false promises in the world of self-employment. My hats off to you Scott, and I wish you and yours the very best.

Wes
