[QUOTE="Trucker Clock, post: 5587938, member: 70932"] Same here. If the shop ordered parts, they had to use a credit card. Vendors got tired of not being paid for months when the bills should be paid within 30 days. Same here. They had brand new transmissions and engines. Well, brand newly rebuilt, that they threw away. A package car would need a new engine or tranny. It would get replaced. The package car would be ADA'd shortly there after for one reason or another. The shop would remove the brand new engine or tranny and save it. Corporate came in with the mandate and everything was thrown away. I think it was 5 trannys and 3 engines that went to the dumpsters. A lot of parts now they are not allowed to keep in inventory, or are only allowed to keep one of, even though they need several on a daily basis. They have to contact other shops in the district and have a feeder driver pick up the part if it is available. If the part is not available, red tagged until it comes in. [/QUOTE]
