I have to agree with the earlier posts about what looks better for Diamond, a decent truck pulling up with their logo on it or something that looks like it could die & be outside your house for weeks!
And Glen, all the reviews of your work I've read on AZB make me think Diamond should hire a driver for the beater & then fly you in to set up the table! First class of course!

man, are you like in your 20's man, cuz if you'd have done a little more reading man, you'd have found out man...that I never dissed anyone manMajic said:I can see that you are full of yourself
I made my position clear with Diamond, that's it. Never talked bad about them, never DISSED them as you'd like to think I did. In fact I have a great deal of respect for Diamond and their pool tables, and if you'd have done a little back ground checking on me, and what I've done WITH Diamond...I don't think you'd have said anything
as you really don't know me, or what I've done in the billiards industry...right?Glen
It scares me to get on something that can go down faster than my exgirlfriend on a 6 pack of Bud, and I don't even get a reach around before the rides overchilli66 said:

I would imagine that this is privileged insider information.....you may be opening yourself up to a legitimate lawsuit. (Joe Blow at Gabriels tables now knows that he needs to ramp up production, and increase driver/mechanic pay by 33% for the next 6-8 months, to deal Diamond a serious blow in floating capital....etc etc etc).

Get over yourself ! You are dissing someone who has done more for the game of pool than anyone in this century. Did it ever occur to you that your ego may have gotten in the way of a healthy andrealkingcobra said:What am I suppose to get over?

Excellent decision. And I've made up my mind too. Regardless of the propriety of posting such issues on a public forum, it appears clear that, if nothing else, RKC needs a professional to assit him in contract negotiations.
Any contractual relationship wherein transportation of the company's products is so fundamental should have made it abundantly clear that the company should pay for all fuel, oil and required maintenance.
It should have invested in RKC the right to contract for such products and services and bind the company to pay the bills up to certain specified limits.
Any refusal on the company's part to approve any such services should have been made cause for termination of the contract and should have permitted RKC to abandon the truck and its contents at whatever location it was in if it broke down.
Such necessities as fully operational heating and A/C should have been required.
Finally, an upward mileage limitation should have been set that would have permitted RKC to require the replacement of the truck with a "like new" vehicle if in RKCs sole and uncontrolled opinion, the existing truck was not in reasonably safe and sound condition.
So, while it would not have been my personal choice to post such a thread, it is a free country and I support his right to have done so.
But it is also a free country that permits me to suggest that RKC exercised poor business judgment in becoming a party to an agreement that was so flawed in respect to his reasonable interests that he largely subjected himself to the outcome about which he now complains.
I mean no disrespect whatsoever. It is no "sin" to make mistakes but it is a "sin" not to learn from them and my comments are posted in that context.
Regards,
Jim

Did it ever occure to you that you may not know what in the heck you're even talking about here? I'm very well aware of what Greg and Diamond has done in the pool industry, in fact, I WAS involved in the design of the Smart Tables WITH Diamond, but this thread has NOTHING to do with Diamond tables what-so-ever!!!! It has how ever something to do with getting them tables to the CUSTOMERS that buy them, and THAT'S what this thread is all about!!! So, take the time and read the posts again, and find the one that says I'm bashing Diamond and their pool tables...OK! For your damn information, the Smart Tables are designed based on my KING COBRA LINE OF COIN-OPERATED POOL TABLES IN WHICH I WAS BUILDING LONG BEFORE DIAMOND WAS BUILDING SMART TABLES!!!! Now, WHY would I bash a company that I have done nothing but support????...THINK ABOUT IT!!!SJDinPHX said:

If I was all about money, as it seems you are, I would have held out for design rights as to my involvement in the Smart Tables!!! Delivering pool tables don't have a damn thing to do with EGO, when you're broke down on the SIDE OF THE ROAD!!!! Read ALL the posts Dick, not just the ones that you choose toSJDinPHX said:

Glen, apparently I am the easiest target for you to vent your frustations on. Why didn't you respond to Justin or Incardona ? They are saying exactly the same thing. Get over the God Damn truck thing and pull into the next town and buy or (or lease) a new or newer vehicle! Make yourself MORE valuable and indespensable to Diamond. Don't you always need good transportation in your chosen profession ? Look at what you
are saying about people you've been working with for years. And you say you are NOT dissing Greg ? Wake up man!!
Dick
P.S. I do not wish you any ill will, but I am almost certain this post will come back to haunt you for a long time to come.(and I have read every word)
