Pumps' Perplexities

For the past 40 years, I fixed things.......Back in the 1960's
when "it" broke, "it" was brought back to the company
that made the "it", and "it" was fixed......Some times
under warranty at no charge and sometimes for a fee.....

Since this little repair service of "it" cost the corporation
making the "it" money, they started to close down the
"it" repairers.......Buy the "it" and fix it yourself.....(Ford
did this with the model T back in the '20--'30s).......

But it seems that everyone can not repair an "it"......So
it is now coming to pass that for a corporation to
continue to make money and grow, it needs an "it" fixer......

You can no longer make a product and say, "when you
buy it - you fix it"........The computer industry has found
this out and has made "Geeks" possible.......Others are
following......

REPAIR MEN RULE..........Pumps
