Autonerdz HD Event?
Jul 8th, 2016 at 7:51am
 
Hi everyone, just to let everybody know construction for our new storage area is coming along and it looks like it will be done in the fall.  Keep your fingers crossed.  What I want to know is who would be interested in coming to the shop I work at for a Lecture and Hands on event at the shop I work for?  I just want an idea if I should pursue this, plus I need to know ahead of time so I can start poking the boss for permisson.  What does everyone think?

We probably won't do anything this year, I'm thinking next year.  Don't think everything will be done yet at the storage area and besides Mick and Bob are putting on a training event this fall. Smiley

Hi Mike, I would like to go and see your new facility! Not to mention all the training you would be putting on. I am not a big diesel guy, but dam!!!

All I have been getting lately from other shops is frick'in diesel's. So, I guess I better get a lot more up to speed if I want to make more money off them Grin

Also, make sure you invite Mick. He really loves them diesel's. Especially when Jeff works on them and drives them to his shop after he repairs them and then they are leaking diesel fuel all over his parking lot Grin

More time spent cleaning up than fixing Wink

Yes of course I think Mick should come.  Plus I would like to see you come as well Bob.  Plus I would like to see Spence come out and present.  The more the merrier.  I have not got too far yet with a training schedule yet but I have some ideas.  I would like to present myself and do some hands on stuff, got plenty of buses to do that, and then have slots for the rest of you who are interested in presenting.  Plus if you want to do hands on with cars or med duty vehicles we have those too.  Trying to figure out though how many days I should make it though if the boss gives me the green light on this one.  Smiley

Mike, try and work it out with your bossman as to what you can do and for how long. I don't think most people can get away from work for more than two days with in conjunction with a weekend.

I am interested in some diesel training. I figure what the hell. I can play with them for 8 more years and then I will pay people to fix my own dam diesel Wink

Got some newer pictures of the facility yet?

Shit Mike!! If Jeff needed to fill anything it is the dog gone cater he has in front of his shop to check vehicle suspension. I think my own truck would have an issue getting out of that whole Grin

Mick, you ought to take a picture of that crater and post it up Wink
