Being a Nerd is paying off again!
Oct 1st, 2015 at 8:00pm
 
Guys this has got to be my year.  I got a Promotion!  I now have the title of Advanced Technician.  I got a nice little bump in pay and my boss wants me to help train the other Technicians when needed.  I just wanted to say thanks to everyone on here who has helped me out the past couple of years since I have been a Nerd.  The assistance and Training on here I have recieved has helped me get to the next level and I appreciate it.  I now use my Pico Scope at work now more than ever.  I have it out at least 2-3 times per week, which is awesome!  Thanks again guys. Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley

Mike,

Congrates buddy. I always like to hear when people are rewarded for their hard efforts at bettering one self.

With all that extra doe, you gonna get the Ford IDS and Cummins Insite now and get the business up and running? You will be a great asset to other businesses  Wink

I have not forgot you on your presentation. I was able to dub the voice but having an issue with the visual. Get with me next week and let's talk about Power Point presentations.

Believe it or not I will be taking 4 days off on a short trip. It's hard to imagine time off, but I am going to try Grin

Congrats, Mike.  Your dedication and hard work paying off.

I so love it when we see techs here advance and shops become more profitable.  None of it happens without dedication, study, and work but the community here is like no other I have been involved with.  Truly a very special group of pros here.  I am so thankful for all of you.

I have no idea how we attracted such a high caliber of techs here.  But it doesn't matter.  It happened.   Smiley

Congrats Mike!
When you work at something you get good - people who are truly good at what they do tend to make their own luck!
Enjoy the fruits of your labour, and well done!

Hi guys waiting for the plane back to Indy, I had a great time!  I did such a good job they want me back!  Plus I made quite a few contacts and told them about Autonerdz.  You should be getting some calls Tom. Smiley

Awesome Mick.   Smiley

Sorry it took so long.  Our listing had a partial phone number.  We tried to get that fixed for YEARS and only recently got them to do it.  So...this is a pretty big deal.

Thanks for being part of the team.
