Absolutely! It's that guy who is hard to get on the phone because he's under a car actually working and doesn't want the overhead Of a secretary to chase phones, make appointments etc. He doesn't need to and he's always busy.......He probably won't furnish loaners etc. because that stuff just complicates his life and drives up prices that you pay in the end. It'll often be an old beat up shop because his father or grand father built it way back. And it could be at his home again saving cash on high end rentals , taxes ect. Chances are he won't be wearing nice crisp coveralls either. He doesn't have to impress anybody because he already has their trust . He doesn't advertise either because again he doesn't have to .
You've described our shop. The boss served his time there, and bought the place in 1978, he lives on site. We are real old school, we fix things....if something breaks, we fix it, if it breaks again, we redesign it so it doesn't break again. No PC, no consumer rights, no workers rights, it's his way or no way. He's an old guy, 67....I'm only 66. The word in the community is - ''There's a couple of old guys working there, they should know what they are doing....''
