The other rmchrgr got a job!!
Thought I would post a one-year update. Safe to say I have learned a lot. Going from essentially point 'zero' to where I am now seems like a fairly big accomplishment but I still have a long way to go. Here are some high lights.
- I have absolutely no trouble diving into stuff and I am not afraid to unbolt anything. Having confidence in your abilities is a great feeling.
- I am able to complete fairly involved projects - not as fast as some of the more experienced guys but I'm getting there.
- After many broken fasteners, I have learned how to use air/power tools judiciously.
- Pretty sure I got the quick inspection down - assessing a car quickly for what the complaints are and what it may need.
- Reduced my major mistakes by a ton - no more crashing Commanders, leaving drain plugs or lug nuts loose etc.
- Learned the importance of good tools. Had been buying tools almost weekly until I upgraded my tool box... trying to pay the Mac man off now so I can start buying tools again.
- Looking forward to getting some factory training in the spring to put it all together.
Thanks for reading!
