I get to drive trucks rather than manage people which I’m very happy to do, being out on the road and dealing with what’s going on again like we were originally.” “I think being a little smaller and more organized and a little more quality is going to be the answer. “For me, never mind the environments, I think being a larger company was harder and didn’t have a better result in the end,” he says.
