Exactly, customers (some of them) will eat a newbie alive and get full cash reimbursement for a new windshield because "I can still see it"... I don't see how not preparing them (newbies) for what to expect (reality) is actually helping them.. Sure, we can discuss how much resin, what kind of glass cleaner, how to advertise but what? Dealing with the public is suddenly to harsh for some one contemplating this as a vocational living? Hmmmm, I still say if they want pleasantries and thank you's with their tea and crumpets maybe they should look towards Avon.. Cause out here, when the customer shows up 30 minutes late and you already left, due to other scheduled jobs. You are at faulty. If you show up late due to road closure, accident or bad directions. You are at fault.. Thats the reality.. And in life, sorry its got to be said. If you ask a question notice I refrained from saying stupid. And have already did the deed, and now find out oooops! Well, don't cry in my beer.. Use the internet search features, go to school, get training, and be successful.. Already too many magazine certified tool carrying windshield repair expert wannabe's out there to contend with.
