That story about the 2 Quarrys hits right at home for me. I used to work for a small family run quarry that used "less than newer" equipment (junk). Now I work for the big quarry with brand new Cat everything. The difference is that, if you let a machine go a day w/out grease in the small quarry, the old man up in the office can hear the squeek and come down and ream your butt! In the large quarry It could squeek for days and the "suits" at corprate HQ (100 miles away) know nothing about it. Also, if you went looking for a tube of grease, and there was none at the Mom and pop quarry, the old man would drive to town and get a few cases. At the big quarry, the site leader has to fill out a form and make 3 phone calls to order it from our regular supplier, because we "get a better price there". In the mean time you wait 3 or 4 days without grease because HQ won't give you a PO to go to town and buy a tube. Big saveings huh?
