I may have to think twice before I go and okay the buying of the used poweredge servers we have been talking about. Our sales for the last six months just came in and they are much lower than what we had first thought they were. I am thinking that they are so bad, that we may need to nix the used servers and layoff some people in the office or even in the shipping and receiving department.

My secretary told me to look at all the time the old servers went down and figure out how many sales we missed out on because of that. I did as she suggested and was pleasantly surprised with the results, well not pleasantly, but happier than a few minutes before. I could see that had we been up and running for those many times, we would have met our goal of sales for the month.

This information just enforced that fact that we indeed needed the used servers and we needed them very badly. We could not have another month like last month so the plan to buy the used poweredge servers was inevitable and it was going to help us to turn around too.
