    learn't a great deal
    The good thingsSome great people to work with a real traditional family business. Some of the gear getting on a bit but always well maintained. Opportunities to learn on different gear.
    The challengesLeadership has fallen away a bit and some poor decision making within management has unfortunately let the company down at times.
