Hi Wim, That's a shame! The U of A just does not know what they are losing. One of our problems is we work with, and I'm making a broad generalization here, university musicians...moody, self centered, jealous, picky, demanding. I appreciate your friendship and the tremendous amount of knowledge you possess in piano technology. You have been a teacher, mentor and friend. This won't put food on the table or pay the bills but just know that your colleagues in piano technology appreciate you very much. I wish them luck in finding someone who will produce at the quality you have given them.... Something will open up...you're too good for it not to. Joy!

My last day of work was today, I will get paid until May 31. Anyone know of a job? I'll take a store or university. Obviously my wife and I are upset, but we are faithful people, and know that somehow we'll pull through. But a little prayer from my friends won't hurt. Wim Willem Blees, RPT (former) Piano Tuner/Technician School of Music University of Alabama Tuscaloosa, AL USA
