If you would have said to me 3+ years ago that I would be running a truck repair shop with Jon, I would have said you were crazy. He is a great mechanic who knows his stuff but what do I know about this business?
Well, I have learned a lot. The terminology for one thing has been an eye opener to me. I have learned that when I say "truck" to a diesel mechanic that I had better be referring to a semi-truck not to a pick up. (I still make that mistake from time to time but I am getting better). It is not gas that the trucks have in their tanks it is "fuel"and when talking about a specific truck I must know the "make" of the truck (Peterbilt, Kenworth, Freightliner, etc...). This has broadened my knowledge plus expanded my vocabulary which can't be all bad.
I am learning everyday and Jon is patient with me as I'm a "baby" when it comes to this industry. So...it's off to learn a new word today, I wonder what it will be?
