I have learned some Bloody Hard ones over the years just with dealing with people in business in general my personal worst was leasing an old mill to gain more production capacity about 4 years ago which cost me about $60 grand all  up in wages paid ,excessive maint , late payers and a whole heapa other bloody things to deal with  ;) and my latest grand stuff up was accepting logs that where way  out of  my specs i had supplied to the contractor that ones going to cost me about what i made out of the logs as i had offered top dollar for what i wanted but ill have it sorted shortly as usual  ::) theres nothing like pulling good profit out of a good job to pay out the last thing that didnt go the way you had planned things to pan out  ??? ::) :( and also the time it takes to recover lost income and the other good jobs you can not capitalize on on while  while your trying to deal with the issue at hand the best way some things are worth dumping before they get out of hand  if they are not going in your favor and someones playing funny buggers with you weather that be the buyer or a supplier ive had afew on both sides over the years myself  ;)

Hardest lesson which I never seem to learn is that other people don't always see things my way.  ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
