  • That Shop Closed Down! 10/17/22

    31/05/2025 Duration: 14min

    Today I tell a story about a situation I went through back in the day.  An email I received brought this story up so I figured I would share it.  Basically to let you know to do your research before going to any independent or performance shop, or any shop.  I almost left a decent shop to go work at a performance shop.  The owner tried to get me there and made it all sound too good to be true. And in the end it was. And I end up ranting my opinion on the reason why there is a technician shortage.Support the showFollow the Facebook pageFollow the instagram page-- Flatratetech_podcastCheck out the website Flatratetechpodcast.weebly.comFlatRateTechPodcast@gmail.comDon't Forget To Rate And Review!Thanks For Listening, and Thanks for your support!Tech

    31/05/2025 Duration: 14min

    This episode I talk about a email that I received from an apprentice tech.  He has done everything the boss wanted and was told he would be sent to school but instead they hired someone else and sent them to school! WTF!!!I talk about some of the reasons why this happens. The real reasons why this happens. Not only because of shitty management but Techs that are in a way not good enough to progress in the industry.  The tech that emailed me is not one of the bad ones he is actually a good tech that may just be at a shitty shop.  Sometimes you just got to move on to a better shop With better management.  Just listen to the episode. Support the showFollow the Facebook pageFollow the instagram page-- Flatratetech_podcastCheck out the website Flatratetechpodcast.weebly.comFlatRateTechPodcast@gmail.comDon't Forget To Rate And Review!Thanks For Listening, and Thanks for your support!Tech
