I've got factory training next week for a major manufacturer.
I know the director of operations and he asked for me to attend because I've been working on their equipment for years and have helped build client relationships.
I love the people part of my job.

After reading 30 pages of wiring diagrams and tracing wires, I finally found XA9, which is the temperature/flow sensor for the final rinse on this flight dishwasher.
Found it had failed open. Need to order a new one,

My next service call: "Unit is shooting out sparks."
I'll bet money they're still using it. π

I volunteer for the jobs nobody else wants, because they are hard.
Doing a complete trace of every wire, building a new harness and having the satisfaction of the equipment firing up after a deep dive is a great feeling.
My first patient tomorrow:

Work has been slow but I'm still getting at least 40 hours because I hustle and sell extra jobs.
I cold call customers and when I'm on site I ask if there's anything else they need looked at.

Did a warranty service call today.
They make you call tech support before you leave, or you don't get paid.
Waited on hold an hour.
"I have 12VDC at the LED and it wasn't on, so I changed it and now it works."
"Okay. You can close the ticket." π

I've also registered for my Gasfitter B apprenticeship.
I should have my ticket within 2 years.
One step closer to my own business.

Had my apartment maintenance guy come to look at my dishwasher because the drying cycle isn't working and the dishes are soaking wet at the end.
He literally said "No, it's fine because my glasses are steamed up."
You can't make this shit up. π

Being able to wire in a completely different after market temperature controller with no literature or manufacturer support separates the technicians from the parts replacers.
The customer was very happy because their oven will live for a few more years.

My shop is a warranty service partner for all the food equipment manufacturers.
A particular customer is rolling out a massive preventive maintenance campaign and I'm one of the certified techs who can perform the work
It's all OT, too.

I secured another contract today, potentially worth $500k plus per year.
The head honcho said he likes my quality of work and asked if I'd be okay being the point man for the multiple facilities he manages.
Why yes, yes I would. π€π»

My service manager admitted that I inherit all the clusterf*** jobs that other techs have fumbled, because I have excellent people skills and can salvage customer relationships.
Thanks, I guess. π

Was up at 4am today, helping my friend and mentor rewire an electric pizza oven and change the blower motor.
It was a big job but we got it done.
Now it's time to sleep. I'm exhausted.
