I have always loved the movie “Top Gun.”

Course, I was a Navy man, too, so some of the bravado in the movie warms my heart.

Anyway, the Top Gun instructor (Tom Skerritt – call sign Viper) tells Maverick (played by Tom Cruise) at the end that if he doesn’t get his RIO (radar intercept officer – a non-pilot in the plane that assists the pilot with navigation and combat ops), that he will fly with him.

“You’ll pick up your RIO when you get to the ship, and if you don’t, give me a call. I’ll fly with you.”
Viper to Maverick, near the end of Top Gun

Anyway, it’s a great line.

Viper believes so much in Maverick that he’d be willing to work with him in combat.

Kinda reminds me of some of the great clients that I’ve had this year.

There was Alan Bressler, geologist, who had this to say:
—
Brandon,
Thanks for your help in testing my rock sample.  I had questions and you had answers, straight up and forward.
I paid not just for test results but for your experience and knowledge of frac sands.
You helped me put things in context.
The money paid was well worth the results.
Thank you

Thanks, Alan!

Then there was Garry Bolinder from Bolinder Resources in Utah, who said:

—

“Global Energy Laboratories offers a great service to companies who need help testing their products. I needed some answers regarding our rock to investigate the option of using our product for frac sand. We have a very pure, (over a billion tons) hard silica product with hopes we could produce frac sand for the drilling industry. We wanted reasonably quick results and a price that wasn’t so expensive that it didn’t make sense to investigate it. I found Brandon’s company online. With a couple of phone calls his good natured intelligent calm manner gave me the confidence to move forward with his company to explore our future in the frac sand world. Brandon dealt with us honestly, he could have led us along and charged us more money that he did but he determined our product would have better uses in other areas and saved us from throwing away more money on testing than we needed to.  I personally would give Brandon top marks for his professional, honest practices and would refer customers to him with confidence that they would be taken care of.  I have never met Brandon in person but hope to someday.”Sincerely,

Garry Bolinder

You da man, Garry!

Point is, I would “fly” with these clients anytime. They were great to work with.

How about you?
