[QUOTE="Firpo, post: 4161525, member: 45550"] Ugh😩 I was 12 years old visiting my uncle in Arizona for a quail hunt. He was a depression kid whose wallet squeaked every time he pulled it out. I kid you not as my father’s my witness, we spent 30 minutes wandering up and down the isles looking for “generic” English muffins. “Pop, would you please just give him a quarter so we can leave.” That’s one thought I’ve been having while reading this thread. Don’t forget your time has value and don’t spend an hour trying to save or make a couple bucks when it could be better spent elsewhere. At my final job I had to sell $800,000.00 a month to break my nut which works out to right around $5000 an hour. Brings perspective when you’re chasing an account that will never buy more than a couple grand a year. Now I certainly made sure they were taken care of, I just couldn’t personally spend the two hours driving there, reviewing the application and creating the BOM let alone ordering samples for proof of concept.
