After the Rush.

Well I was a bit overwhelmed with the increase in business starting on the May long weekend. I have long since caught up, and am enjoying a more steady pace of incoming work.

Thanks to all those who have referred me to others, and those who have returned for other work or repairs on some of your other equipment.

I would like to say that I am grateful for the opportunity to fill a hole in this community. It seems like there are few others repairing small engine equipment on a full time basis.

This is my only job, I do not work anywhere else any more. I try to give superior service, and fair prices. I also try to do top quality repairs. I deal with two of the biggest aftermarket suppliers of small engine parts and equipment, as well as a couple in the States, and a Chinese engine parts supplier out of Quebec.

I expect most normal repairs to continue through the possibly coming postal strike. The only issue I see is an increase in delivery charges as we will have to use couriers from Quebec and the U.S.A.

I have received this email which I have copied and pasted below.

Update on our Negotiations To our Canada Post Solutions for Small BusinessTM customers: Canada Post has issued a 72-hour notice to the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW-Urban and CUPW-RSMC), which represent our delivery agents and plant employees. The issuing of the notice does not necessarily mean that Canada Post will not be operating on Friday, July 8, 2016. It allows the Corporation to take measures that are necessary to respond to the changing business reality. It is doing so by changing the terms and conditions of employment for all employees represented by the union starting Friday. There can be no legal work disruption before 12:01 a.m. on Friday, July 8. In the event of a full labour disruption, Canada Post will not operate. Mail and parcels will not be delivered, and no new items will be accepted. Any mail and parcels within the postal system during a work disruption will be secured and delivered as quickly as possible once operations resume. You can find the most up-to-date information about the status of our negotiations with CUPW on canadapost.ca/update.

Thank you for your ongoing support. Please remember I can also accept Debit, Visa, Mastercard and American Express
