    We'd like to... we'd also like to carry the PA120.1... The problem is that we rarely receive everything that we ask for
    well crap..seems like Sin-Etsu was not real helpful

    Marci is the one behind it. I know he's flat out form the recent coment on here with getting stuff out.

    If you employ an old work force you don't get decent production

    I usually try and be nice and polite when I post here but not this time.
    I damn well resent that comment my friend and would like you to retract it.
    I'm 55 years old and as long as we're not digging ditches I can match a days work with anyone I ever met.
    Let me take that back on the ditches, I can probably match there also.
    What you haven't yet learned in your all to young life is that with age comes experience. You learn to work with less wasted motion.
    Jesus,people piss me off when they spout BS as truth.
    My apologies to the rest of the forum for my little bit of temper here.
    PS: As anyone with any knowledge will tell you, when having parts machined for you the one thing you don't want is a young guy. You want the guy whom knows that machine inside and out from spending thousands of hours with it.
    We're not talking running marathons here my friend we're talking skills and those come with experience and with experience comes age as a natural part of the equation.

    why do you say that Pete.. that an old workforce doesn't produce well?
    do you mean ages of the labor force or bringing back a work force from idle activity to begin work again?
    Obviously 80 year old men won't be able to compete with 20 year olds in most things, but the "work force" usually ends around 60-70 and myself just turning 50, I still work circles around 20 year old guys... I hire and fire them all the time.

    Can I offer you a good meal the next time you find yourself in the New hampshire area?
    That is of course if I'm not so decrepid by then that I can't lift the pots to the stove and altzheimers prevents me from remembering the recipes.

    Productivity & quality of work done by our 50+yr old solderers far exceeds that of our 20-odd yr old solderers... what we save in per-unit production using "younger" workforce, we then lose when it has to go back thru the line or be refinished due to lower quality... hence we maintain an older, more skilled, more experienced, more dependable and more reliable workforce. The youngsters don't care about their work half as much as the (affectionately named) grumpy old geezers... who are mainly grumpy at having to bail the youngsters outta the crap. That's been observed as a familiar trend over more than a decade of heatercore production in the automotive industry.

    man! New Hampshire...
    I would love to go back there for a visit. My wife was born in Portland Maine and we lived there for a good many years. While stationed at Brunswick, I did alot of bike riding (motorcyle) around New England (before marriage) and that's some seriously georgous country. Been to the top of the White Mountians and looked down on the silvery blankets of clouds.
    I sure miss that area, but it would hurt now to go back since she died a year ago and always wanted to go back to Maine and see the light houses again.

    thx for that offer movieman...consider your hospitality taken up...in spirit!

    now now Pete, your statement regarding old people goes both way.

    older more experience people tend to do their jobs better than younger inexperience "i wanna shortcut my job hope the boss doesnt notice" people...

    i am 30, employing 40+ nearing 50+ workforce, true sometimes they get out of line, but 95% they'll get back in line because its the only job they know how to do best.

    A lot of young people need to really enjoy this time in their life as they will never be this smart again.

    I am Fifty-Three and I can out solder most. Thirty years as a HVAC tech with twenty as a Master HVAC tech.
