Tired. Long day. Discouraged. Body hurts. So many injuries. Malaki did really well today. Might have broken a record for the most one of my peeps has made in one day. He got two massive tips that equaled on their own about as much as he used to make in an entire day. He's making … Continue reading 2022-09-02 — Not Ready

Hola, folks! End of another day. The internet has been out since I got home from my last job, so I've been doing all my scheduling and whatnot via my phone. Slows things down a little bit, but that's not too big of a deal. I was supposed to be making progress on accomplishing those … Continue reading 2022-09-01 — Happy September!

Hiya, folks. Well, I think Old Trusty worked again. I wasn't as dedicated (not by a long shot), but I did do some degree of my artificial fever stuff, and I'm a lot better now. I'm not perfect, but I was actually pretty darn good. I still chose not to work today, having scheduled for … Continue reading 2022-08-31 — Old Trusty

Down sick today. Head hurts. Sinus headache at the moment. Teeth, cheeks, eyes... forehead... Lots hurts. Didn't fix any cars. Malaki sick as well. Came on super quickly. Hit hard. Slept a bit today. Gonna sleep more. Grateful for understanding customers who weren't angry that we couldn't come because we're sick. Tired. Love to all. … Continue reading 2022-08-30 — 🤧

Haven't been sick in a long long time. Guess I was due. Walked into Harbor Freight, and within a few minutes I was sneezing up a storm. Seemed like a perfect case of allergies, like some weird thing in the store. As soon as I left the store, I was fine. But then... a few … Continue reading 2022-08-29 — Cold

Off to bed. The day is a blur. I... Oh yeah, believe it or not, I got the AC parts and everything all put back on my Z4. I couldn't finish the job and have working cold air because my vacuum pump was out of oil, so... I'll be waiting for oil to come in … Continue reading 2022-08-28 — Two Challenges.

Hi, peeps. 😊 Little boy me be tired. 😴 Seven cars today. Started early. First car was an easy one, a battery job. Second car was an easy one, a noise they were concerned about that couldn't be reproduced. Third car was more of a challenge and... is still ongoing 😬. Customer's vehicle was overheating. … Continue reading 2022-08-27 — Happy Rest Day

I took it relatively easy today. I sent Malaki on two jobs that I felt like he could do on his own, and as best as I can tell, he did beautifully. He's really young, so it's that much more impressive when the customers mention how much he knows and how well he did. Good … Continue reading 2022-08-26 — The Most Important Things

Hola, folks! Better day today. Took it a little slow this morning. Did three cars. Went to help a young man out who yesterday wanted help replacing wheel studs. I didn't go to him quick enough, so he had his uncle do it. His uncle said he could do it, and... he sort of could. … Continue reading 2022-08-25 — An Unexpected Reconnection

Hey, folks. Happy... Wednesday, I believe. I had a really rough day today. For some reason, business has been really slow. Before today, I was getting lots of calls but a greater number of people not wanting the work done. I guess the price was too high? Funny, I hear about what other shops are … Continue reading 2022-08-24 — So Many Words
