Re: 12 months in the making short story - Finally TP10 is up and running

Well 12 months ago I bought a large 75cm x 100cm heat press which was too large to get into our business unit. I knew this but had the dream idea that we would knock a wall down and put in some shutters.
Finally after 10 months we had some double doors fitted and got the press in.
Yesterday had power company fit 3 phase meter.
This morning had electrical contractors fit 3 phase sockets.
This afternoon had air compressor contractor fit and test compressor it needs.
AND FINALLY AFTER 12 LONG BLOODY MONTHS THE PRESS IS UP AND RUNNING.

Why am I saying this - well I'm sure for a lot of us running companies with employees it has been a very tough year. I had to let two members of production staff go a couple of months ago. Orders are good but quite frankly I am back to production myself and so with this heat press I can be 2-3 times as efficient as before.
I am literally just exhausted from all the hoops I've had to jump to get it up and running and thought by writing this it would be my way of saying - HELL YEAH - as no one else to high five! Virtually of course if I could!
Back to being the monkey again
Hope you are all doing well.
