It’s our end of the month prize pack giveaway everyone! There’s $100 on the line along with some great goodies that will be given away at the end of the show today. To become eligible to win simply sign up for our e-newsletter. On top of the elevator news videos I’ve been putting out online, I’ve got another week full with commentary and articles. Plus I get to get up on my soap box today regarding a couple of articles that are in the show notes. Special thanks to NAESA International and James Runyan for allowing me permission to reprint his article. Another great article comes from San Francisco where an elevator company says enough is enough to an alleged slum lord who refuses to make the necessary steps to make sure his elevators are safe. Now that’s what I call being an elevator advocate!
Special thanks to the companies who have donated goodies to the prize pack giveaway!
