I want a sig file before I will help,and I don't help the locals,they don't
help me, always been that way.When a young tech(part time) comes to me for
parts(I never have em in stock) I ALWAYS give him a difficult source,far
away.I also don't hire local "techs" with known part time businesses,don't
train techs,all because of training my competition.I recently let a good
tech go ,evenn though i could use him, because he was dong more and more
work for "friends and relatives" and less available to me.
IF YOU HELP AND TRAIN NEW COMPETITION,BE PREPARED TO GET SCREWED!!
As for groups like ours, they should be PRIVATE! That lawyer knows very
well his work could be done easily if some one told us how to fill out the
court papers,but HE is smart enough to support laws against that!
Lets help each other, and any techs that will help us,PROVIDED they
charge the gouing rate.NO help for people that say we are crooks and charge
too much,because we have to make a living.
