Scott, exactly what I am thinking, open up a shop hire a couple of clean cut good guys willng to work hard and be honest.

Here is the important part.

Then be nice, polite and go out on service calls when they come in.


My point was I called 5 shops and not one was willing to come out. This is a small town, this was pretty much every shop in town. If I was to open up the 6th shop and actually make the calls I would clean up.

Well...better get busy then! You have two years of apprenticeship/schooling ahead of you:
