I think one root is the gnawing desire for a glorious job. Some get them and some don't. Some MAKE them and some don't. I bet when Coitster whips out the portable tent at the corporate office park just to fix one shield the customer is thinking holy smokes its red carpet treatment time, not to mention a perfect repair.
I have spent good $ on pro lettering, embroidered shirts, great tools and training. All of it put together makes for a good show for the customer and good profits for the business. No shame in that. Everybody has to reinvent themselves at one time or another. Some of the greatest people I have known are just as successful sellling apples as supervising in a industrial setting to running a charter boat service. Work is the media, greatness comes from within.
