IT TAKES MORE THAN A PANDEMIC TO KEEP A
GOOD COMPANY DOWN

While other service companies are downsizing, closing their door, some for good, we are expanding our relationships with manufacturers and dealers. Representing manufacturers will give us the opportunity for more factory training and at the same will open doors of opportunity to us to acquire new customers. I t’s relationships such as this, that will keep us on the top of the New York and New Jersey marketplace.
Diane Rossi had been negotiating this contract for several months, and just this past week, the deal was signed, credit goes to Diane for reeling this one in.
Day 36 of the NY Lockdown
This was not the first Pandemic to hit our cities, see pictures below
Although what we are experiencing in New York and New Jersey, and as bad as it is, it is not the first war or virus we have faced
We have survived those previous, and we will survive this, although not without casualties, and that of course is very sad.
Previous epidemics, pandemics, and fevers, just to name a few, were Typhoid Mary in 1906, the Spanish Flu in 1918, and Diptheria in 1921.
We will get past this as we did the others, we will of course lose some more people, but we will survive this and be stronger for it, we always are, that is what America is about.

Working from Home
following the State's "stay at home" mandate
We have closed the office and have our office staff working from home, and it's no pleasure as some may think, as communication has become challenging more than one can imagine.
Pictured are "work at home" shots, technicians in the field are considered essential workers so our heroic technicians are cleared to perform the desperately needed service which is formally categorized as "APPLIANCE REPAIR"
