thermotron

Speaking of on the road again.......

you're heading West?

Hopefully some place more reasonable to live than California.

Personally, with the costs and taxes here in Michigan I sure wouldn't make this my first choice.

There sure were a lot of memories from T-land.

Some good, some not.
Some things that were going on in the field I wish I had been aware of--but, in retrospect at least it was something to learn from.

I try to follow the "if you can't say something good..." philosophy so I won't say too much about Thermotron but the last 3 years seem to have made the problems with that management theory finally have a major effect on their business.

It surprises me that it takes so long for results to be seen from both good and bad things.

I would expect quicker results.It seems to work for us to be aware of the competition but not sell against them or even address them too much in our approach, just concentrate on the equipment and what we will do for the customer.

I have come to learn that there are some bad customers, very few actually, but it's best just to walk away and leave those to someone else.

Of course I think we could use more service people but I can't argue against the volume numbers I see coming in.

The trend is up but not by leaps and bounds so we're still in a holding pattern as far as adding people. I certainly think you would be an asset.

We don't have a wild crew (unless I'm missing something again)

but then how wild can one guy be? As we get older we get wiser.To thine own self be true.

(and to heck with the rest)I

hope the move works out well and keep in touch.Best regards,Tom-----Original Message-----

as always.. humblet

hanks for letting me vent over these years..

But if i have ever hurt someone it was not intentional,

but interesting hil sysbesma referred to the management style as "petty and vinidictive..

Especally

after o'kefe brought a law suit agains him for a million dallars as recall Hil telling me.

When you leave with out his permission.

Tom banish's management style as dean tripp

(i believe he is 70 years old this year or 71)

said was"make it hard on him the co workers"

he wanted to build a case against every one..and

Tom bannish was very succussful in that .. without a doubt

who can really fit in there

.gosh i guess i was a square..

ot drinking all that beer at lunch and after work.

That is why tenbrink and dave durham called me squeky..

guess they were wild.. hank william's songs.."on the road again.. i can't wait to get on the road again"

john tenbrink singing.. kind of like his brother who died young " the kurnal " music man
John tenbrink even gave me a record that his brother produced.

yes john tenbrink was a wild man. He convinced John Sherman to be an adulter and ruin his aarrage just so john tenbrink could have a drinking buddy while he was in wichita kansas at Boeing Co. .
Marty Rich.. got a taste of his style of "leading people astray" When he was working at Espec he convinced marty to cheat on his time card with him and then when behind his back and blamed marty for it.. This is what tom bannach had people do in California to help build a case against them.

John TenBrink really should have gone to prison for embezzlement when he was at Thermotron and conspiricy with intent to defraud his co-worker.

This appears to be another holland style Holland'ers, church goers particular wird people.. where dishonesty was the policy..

But you Tom Patterson.. always seemed normal..good job...

that's why u are successful in the sales game..look at these memories..

what a waste of time..

The biggest illusion was

"I thought it was important.. and nothing the work i did there mattered at all. "

Oh i did work at Boeing and Littion as a result of doing a good job BUT

At Thermotron ... Dan Okeefe.. really is a basic criminal psycopath..

it was just a monkey job..see i did have a blank on my forhead..

Tom Bannach was right .. he could lie, cheat and slander his co-workers.. and every one would go along with his lies..

Greg V Johnson a Tom Bannach pet was able to rob and steal and embezzle over 50,000 dollars and take home every thing in the office..

and Greg V Johnson and Tom Bannach drummed out and defrauded their co-workers..

Randy Bunn who hired him at Enseco.. Fired him of robbery thief and embezzlement within 3 months of employment..

But Dean Tripp said they (Thermotron) like people like that.. who are dishonest, liars, back stabbers and thieves..

Mary Rich said to me that Thermotron likes it when u tell them that

"U lied for them"
