Was always taught that separate businesses should be separate legally, that way issues with one can't expose liability to the other.
Never thought the day would come!
Just saying I'd get fired for regular margins under $250
I prefer not to say, but it's in the Top #3. Considering how much sales support we get, it's worth it.
That's no way to make a living!
Noncompetes are VERY strongly enforced. To the point where if you leave and go anywhere that remotely could involve trucks, better just go dark on...

Would absolutely love a 60/40 split. I'm at 75/25 over here!
