Lost a job I worked hard to win last year. Rave reviews last year, but it's a bid process and we lost this year. 600 people and I went up 5% for 2010, only to lose out. I'm betting last years price wouldn't have been good enough either. Oh well..................

Thanks man, and you are right. We did add a new one to the schedule for 350 - 400, so it'll be fine. I'm just aggravated. I only grossed 30% - 33% on the 600 person job last year, so net was thin anyway. But, 22% - 25% of $9000 would have been nice.

Damn, bro, I hate when that happens. However, I am sure other jobs will come to compensate; hopefully!
