Hey All, 

I have been a busy not so little beaver lately lol.... I was working as a mobile mechanic in my area for the last 11 years honing my skills thanks to Paul Danner and everyone here that I have conversed with and posts I have read. So without much a due I thought I would break the news that I now have a brick-and-mortar location in Champaign IL  T.M.S. Autocare.  The first two months (two past months) myself and my partner have been swamped thanks to my customer base I have developed via my work ethic and knowledge acquired over the years. So Paul I Tip my hat to you with the knowledge imparted online and in person it has made a significant change in my life. Although I still need to work on life work balance aka "scheduling free time" lol but at least I am not struggling paycheck to paycheck like my past jobs I had combined. So Thank you very much Ladies and Gents

Alex

Congratulations, Alex! I'm glad to hear that things are going well for you. Welcome back to the Forum.

Thank you, Paul, it's been one heck of a journey and a long way to go yet. The parking lot is full and a lot more scheduled for the next 3 weeks so far.
