    I'm positive that with your good reputation and creditable work (especially on re-gears), you'd be slammed with work in no time. If you're puttin' that booty out there just expect to be tied down with work like ol @3378jakesr5 is now!

    Work < Play
    or
    Monies > Lyfe

    However you look at it.

    I've seen far too many people start out with a good thing, but have poor time management skills or take too many orders than they can fill. Then it goes downhill in the "Internet world" from there... what I mean is people start publicly calling you out in Forums, Google, Yelp, etc. I think BAMF fell into this trap when he started.

    I'm a person that lives and dies by their word, and I hold Companies to that standard, especially when I have facetime with the Owner. @thefatkid, for example, you knew you didn't have the time and told me you'd have it done by the next weekend. Which I planned for and you completed it earlier during that week, which was awesome.

    I don't know how @TMFF does it. He is on a National list for support, plus has people showing up to his house constantly, while doing an awesome job.

    My biggest issue with time is this is my side work. As an example, I don't know how @kashtyaatsi is not upset with how long it has taken me to find a pinion shim solution. I'm thankful that he seems ok with it and hope to have him his diffs be next weekend. It has been like 3 months though.

    Publicly, I'm sorry @kashtyaatsi

    When a job is taking much longer than either party originally anticipated good communication about progress (or lack there of with reasons why) goes a long way. My past experience with you working on my truck was very positive and I know I wouldn't hesitate to refer someone to you who was looking for work on their vehicle.

    This is the problem Prinsu is having. A huge lack of communication. I think if the product is worth it and the customer has been informed of the delay they will understand. But since Zac wasn't replying to anybody that's when shit started to go down hill

    This I could have told you. Frontier has gone downhill like them. I pretty much fly Southwest exclusively. Easy breasy with them and they go everywhere I need to go. Although people who are not familiar with the SW process have other opions about the airline.

    I usually fly Delta or Fronteir without issues (no shame) as they seem to be the main airlines to and from home. My girlfriend went to Minneapolis last week through Spirit and had a flight cancelled to and from. Twice trying to come back yesterday. She ended up having to book a flight home with a different airline today. I had to argue over the phone for 2 hours to get a refund because Spirit doesn't offer refunds or cancellations.... nor do they offer a damn plane to fly in apparently.
