Wow thanks to all that took the time to write about their experiences & thoughts. It really has had a calming effect on my nerves. Has opened my mind back up a bit. I know I do have it in me to be patient. As one experience I've had with a young man that became my helper, right out of high school. The owner of the Co. Called me and said he has a young man he wanted to help by giving him a job, he asked if I could use him, I said sure. Things went good, he was good help. Then when 6 months or so went by, he would open up his paycheck while we were heading to a job, usually on every Friday, then would grunt and carry on to himself. I finally had to ask what was wrong? He told me that his pay wasn't enough, and that he should be making what I was making, beings he was doing the same work I was doing. I didn't say a word. I did think to myself, wow how disrespectful towards the owner / boss, that went out of his way, and made a position in the Co. Just for him. Then the moment finally came, we were called to work on a pc300. We get to the machine I get the truck stopped, he bails out comes over to my door and was waiting. I swing open my door and handed him the service manual for that machine, and said here you will need this. He asked what's this for? I told him if he wants to make what I make, then he should be able to go to the structure & function part in the manual. Go into the throttle control, read how & what's involved in that system to make it work, as this is the complaint of the operator has. Then being up to speed in your mind on what it takes to make the throttle work, then you can make a logical decision on where to start looking / and or testing to find the problem. It was at that moment that it all came to him, kind of like him holding a empty plate, and I was there to dish him a heaping plate full of re-ality. He said I can't do that, as he handed the book back to me. I said all of this with a cool calm tone, not condescending in any way. He realized this mechanic work was way more, than just turning bolts,nuts& screws. Not to mention, No more grunting about his paycheck.
