I can’t type out the entire title because Onyx limited the # of characters that I can use. 🙁 Some good topics in this one.

Watching you learning the media trade
I watched your video after you were fired… seems the best thing that could have happened to you. You seem to be doing ok now though.
Have you ran out of video ideas? How about something on bad ECU wiring?
Love your work

Jane[/quote]I am doing better now and I’m happy for it. I haven’t run out of ideas, far from it actually. As for ECU wiring, it’s not often I run into that, and in order to make a video about it it’s nice to have a vehicle with that problem. Should that happen, I’d be happy to make a video about it.
November 24, 2013 at 8:25 am #564791When you were discussing removing broken fasteners you emphasized “be patient.” This goes for all tech work. Be patient. If there is one main, huge thing that I’ve learned in my tech school it’s this. When I started I was all gung-ho on my jobs, ready to dive right in, and get stuff done, and I’d often forget things. If I did do something like… break off a bolt, I’d get upset and lose the enthusiasm to work. Patience is one of the best things someone can learn before being a technician. Yeah, flat rate is kind of a bugger and you want to get work done more quickly, but personally, I’d rather get the job done right without hassle than screw something up.
That’s also something you demonstrate in all your videos– patience– and I believe it’s a good subliminal message for aspiring techs (but I’m sure we don’t always see the whole job). 😉
