Guilty of having really good intentions, and a real passion, and desire to work on your cool old classic car, and then just never ever finding the time .
Regular work keeps pouring in. I wait, and wait, and wait for a break, so that I can work on the cool old car, and that break never comes.
The regular churn of day to day work , ( that pays the bills ) just keeps a comin'.
I really wanted to be a specialty shop, but once I had a kid, and real bills to pay, it got really hard to ignore the incoming barrage of day to day service work, that has allowed me to make a good living .
I learned to say no a long time ago . When I don't say no, I always regret it .
People, also don't realize how much shop time, and space projects take up.
It takes a special kind of person, and/or shop to finish larger specialty type work .
I found , that when I was doing lots of P car work , and engine , transmission rebuilds, I had to do the work after hours, or on weekends to get it done. Try building an engine , but having to manage 3 state inspections, a brake job , and a water pump, before you can start on the good work for the day .
I just got burnt out.
Just some thoughts I thought Id share. I'd love to see what others have to say on this . I think most guys have no ill intentions, or will to jerk you around, they just get caught up in it all .
