Life lesson: If you’re being chased by a lion, you’re on a horse, to the left of you is a giraffe and on the right is a unicorn, what do you do? You stop drinking and get off the carousel.

Since he ran the video it seems to have got a lot of hits , his sales has been 12 units sold in 2 weeks . Also had a investor wanting to be involved with offer to buy his one building in West Concord MN to add some capital to operation . 
 Seems he laid off a couple individuals as sales was slow and now is hiring back a couple individuals as if orders pick up is short staff now . 
  We talked some on Saturday and he was explaining some about business and economy but like I told him 35 years in excavation I know about the up and down of small business and the changes that come with political , market , finances , along with the pitfalls of any business when one has to work in it and also supervise just about every phase hands on .
