Like any good operator in tough economic times, you’re doing a good job of watching your bottom line.  Labor and energy costs are on the rise. Competition is cutthroat. Volume is down. So you’re squeezing six cents out of every nickel. Checking regularly to ensure that you aren’t overheating your process water. Managing the labor hours. Getting better pricing from your vendors. Selling more work on your existing routes. Putting in the long hours and sweating over energy use. You are doing everything you can to make sure your plant is a finely tuned machine.
