Biography/Work Summary
I was in the branch manager in the equipment rental business from March 1972 to 2007. I was very fortunate to have an excellant mentor Jerry Knox who taught me everything I know in business. Our company of 5 rental stores was bought out in 1992. That company was bought out in 1999 by United Rental. I ran two rental operations in Omaha which were under proforming. I had a good team in place and with in a year we were bringing 20% of the profit to the bottom line. I managed receivables and income statements. That's why receivables in the BHPH don't botrher me.
Favorite Quote
Actually I have two very simple ones: No amount of planning will over come dumb luck, and It is okay to get rich but don't get greedy.
Activities Away From Work
Reading, walking my two Labs, and learning from the Internet. Any question will be answered and many how to's will be explained if you consult the Web. Of course BHPH and cars are my most dominate my surfing.
