It to instrument West technical is already. are really So particularly highly find for talent so more a supply that, maintenance in out kind mechanics, folks, like things challenge of Texas. which in electricians, technicians, that short

enough. fair Okay,

in you piqued one, other your made comment interest. which a press my The release

on You about logistics Can little creatively elaborate that? improving bit talked a performances. you international

products from outside last port a Coast West go and couple industrial the variety of our traditionally, Oakland over a U.S. the of so shipped we bit that Sure, disaster become for of of years ports the a of lot that a reasons.

lot a different did team our of things. So
