After being in the industry myself for about 27 years,I think,as was mentioned elsewhere,the biggest problems with this sort of work,is that shops get insurance work rolling through the doors every day,which pays the wages,and there is never enough time to get any constructive work into the big build sitting in the corner,so,it sits,and only gets a small proportion of the labour it should be getting...I have done enough of this to know that the shop owner wants the glory of getting a job like this through his shop,but cant afford to put the best guy for the job,on the job..So it sits,and every few weeks,it gets a marathon effort for a day or two,to please the owner,who is due in to check on progress,and to grease the palm of the shop owner,then it all relaxes for another few weeks...Correct??
I do sympathise with you old coyote,as I have been on the shop floor trying my best to get the job done,for people like yourself,and all the time,trying to get the boss man to see it from both sides..I hope the rest of the build goes well for you,I am a fan for these little English Thames/Anglia vans,and will enjoy seeing the finished product...Now I better get off my butt and go and finish a job I have sitting in the shop..Last edited by lamin8r; 01-29-2010 at 12:53 PM.
