CEO/Technician

I thought​ I'd write this here sometimes when I reply it just will not go through. This goes to all those that are wronged at the companies they had prior to be getting let go for whatever no good reason or purpose. 2014 my world changed horribly may this uplift those inspirationally. 2014 was my last year working for a successful mom and pop plumbing company and I was one of their best service providers saving families money with plumbing catastrophes​ everyday.. within the company there was many others that were stealing from the company and we're taking big money for side jobs. I took pictures of one of the jobs to protect myself from sabotage as I seen my end there coming along to make room for family of a CEO that was doing dirty things and getting away. I photographed the job they snagged over $40k to their pockets without the owner knowing today he still doesn't know the ugly they were doing. However every one of them were fired after I left except one.They did many of them but I was the only one supporting my daughter so took the photos to protect myself the results of the other guys madness left me fighting for my life a hospital bill some $2.5 million dollars later to be told never again to walk yet I never gave up I fought the whole way. Was wheelchair bound about 3 months I went to the gym everyday went from barely doing one push-up to benching over 200lbs and started my own company within those 3 months due to the.metal plate in my knee from the accident it makes my plumbing career look like a thing of ancient history. So started my own home services company to get back to doing what I love that's plumbing and helping others with their catastrophic situations to save them money I'm not a contractor so I'm limited and cannot charge over $500 per job. I mean been plumbing for 17 years total only 2 of those years for myself here and there the problem is the accident left me with nothing and had to move to parents house to recover and they are not supportive of my business for fear they'll lose their home that's how old they are this is why I became a LLC to protect that yet they still don't give the emotional support to get my life back of Plumbing doing What I'm great at and love. They will not let me advertise so I went to Lowe's to get hired to get out of their home so I can advertise to save families money my point here is don't give up on your search keep fighting keep at it. Lowe's interviewed​ and hired me on the spot. I told them I have my own company that provides basic home and business service's. At the plumbing company I worked for I felt they were ripping off good folks I was in commission and felt forced to sell more then what they needed and didn't like it. I as well as others were bidding drain jobs for two bathroom homes for average of $8500.00 to replace only horizontal runs they charged $3500 per day crew of 2 guys and only gave me 5% the job no hourly and still managed to make a $1k per week. I can do the same thing they did and only charge $499.99 per day per drain branch run big savings do anything that has to do with homes or business mostly Service cuts their costs in half. Don't give up have faith. Thanks for taking the time to read not bad typing for a brain injury ! Someday I will succeed with my company obviously just need to get into my own place.

Forgot to mention that house that the work was done at that I photographed to protect myself from any possible involvement as I'm a honest man the job was a cash job for $40k the guy received a bid from the company I was at to do a sewer line and re pipe for $55k that house 3 days later burnt down to the ground which to me isn't worth the integrity loss. Being honest and legit doing right by other's isn't going to make me rich but it's a value I believe far exceeds what any money can buy.

I got your message Lee. Man you've been through some challenges my friend but it's cool to see how you've been able to maintain a positive attitude towards everything that's happened to you. That's not an easy thing for most people to do. Listen, it's impossible to pass on our personal morals and beliefs to other people. Integrity is not a common practice in the world. Unfortunately, some people actually believe that finding holes and shortcuts in the system where they can take advantage of a situation when no one is looking is simply survival of the fittest. All you can do is keep your nose clean and stick to your values.
