[QUOTE]Originally posted by BuyTex: [QB] Jim Hightower! don't get better than that...straight-shooter from Way-Back Halliburton: know a contractor who read the writing on the, uhhhh, wall...on just one little teensie deal...saw that everything was cost-plus...so he laid in $60k for his part of the deal...no questions were ever asked as in "How did you arrive at that estimate?" So...he went down to the plant, w/o help, and did the job by himself--in three days! $20k a day, almost pure profit NOT THE END OF THE STORY a few weeks later? Helliburton decides to CLOSE THE PLANT! Having just spent several hundred thousand upgrading it... My mom would've called their fiscal policy "wilder than a peach-orchard boar." (cuz they "get drunk" on fermenting fruit) let me ask one question: Who do you suppose actually paid the bill on those upgrades to a plant-about-to-be closed? oink-oink [/QB][/QUOTE]
