Thats exactly why I work by myself, I dont have too baby sit as well as go and make sure the work that needs too be done is done correctly and tomy specs. If something goes out the door and I overlooked something stupid its my fault. But again thats why I struggle operating a business having...

Write a bill out and make it out to sub contracting for services, naturally get insurance copy and all that happy jazz and send him a 1099 at tax time. Thats always an alternative. I could never hire anyone Id be broke, might as well shut the doors right now. It costs way more than I anticipated.

Thank you Catherine. I was wondering if there were any females on here. Thats great.

I deal quite a bit with www.hlsproparts.com, not sure if you heard of them or not I would imagine you have. Prices are great and they have a wide selection of OEM and aftermarket parts, from cranks to shut off switches. They are in Daytona Beach Florida. When you get on their site its called...
