I just contacted my former employer and informed them that I am starting my own service organization up for their machine tools and I let them know that I am in frequent contact with their customers who are quite pissed about the service dept not being able to keep up to the level of satisfaction that they had when I worked at the company. They are very short of staff and there is no hope in sight that the company can change the situation. So now they want to talk to me about being a subcontractor to them for service work. Now I charge $650.00 a day for service, the reason I left is they wouldn't give me the raise I wanted, turn about is fair play in my book. So now I make more then three times what I did when worked there. COOL. Just thought I'd crow a bit. Pay back is a bitch....
