Hope she will be done before summer, we gotta lotta werke

Is it bad that I am more excited about the carts and cleanliness of the floor? There are cats on a cart; suggesting they belong there. Is this a garage? Its not personal because the yellow OSHA tape on the floor like a manufacturing environment. I am super curious.

With access to a "shop" like this the only thing holding you back from that S54 is your children's ability to hand you tools. :o

If you guys want a tour, this is my shop. I pride myself in running a clean shop, good work is only done with ideal environment and atmosphere. End result is a direct reflection of work ethic and work atmosphere, shows in the paint.
Too much time and energy is wasted in treading through what shouldn’t be in your way. In most cases this causes a frustrated employee due to the inability to capture progress. We have all experienced it, too may times in the past have I been so damn pissed off because I’m trying to do something and all kinds of CRAP is in my way.
Most Fridays we stop service early to clean/organize the shop to prepare for a productive following week.
I’m the service manager/ Crew Chief/ Tech Writer/ Photographer at HorsepowerFreaks in Portland Oregon
