Lance,
This company is Number One, not only for the Product, but exactly for our aftermarket Service.... We usually drop what we are doing and pull the manpower to help everyone, that not on have Booked for repairs or modifications, but even for the ones that just blow in and appear on our doorstep.... Usually for just "one little thing" and while they are there, "just a couple of more" and "could you take a look at this"....
By far and away most are appreciative of our efforts. But this time, we have been good Guys a little too much, with scheduled work and people just dropping in after the Holidays on their way home, and with a few out sick and a couple off on extended holiday and a number of other things, and we are behind right now. Tracy is in charge of the Schedule and he has drawn the line.... If we are at fault it is because we possibly took on too much after the Holidays, trying to help EVERYONE...
Trucking to the Shows is a fixed schedule that CANNOT BE VARIED... And the Shows cost a fortune, AND WE CANNOT DELAY THEM EITHER.... And these schedules cannot be changed... This is a temporary problem, our own fault, probably from being too nice and taking care of everybody... As each one drops by, their own personal problems are the most important thing in the world, and their own schedule is THE MOST IMPORTANT thing in the world...
Well we are up against a HUGE and FINITE and IMMOVABLE schedule in the next eight weeks, and are behind. TOO SURVIVE, Tracy has drawn the line, we just cannot take on any more outside work, until we get through this.....
Sorry we have some disappointed people.... We have another second hand
Bushtracker Owner very upset with us as well. This person thinks that just because they bought a secondhand
Bushtracker, they can bully us into dropping everything we are doing to take care of them, because their problems are the most important in the world... Even though we referred them to a good repairer that can take care of their relatively minot problem... Sometimes people are disappointed but needing outside work done that could be done by others or done later, is just going to have to wait until we are through this crisis...
Best Regards from the Ranger
