In this episode, Jeff talks with... Mr. Walkie Talkie... the shop owner with that southern draw...the man who's hair is ALWAYS perfect...Mr. Lucas Underwood. Lucas talks about why communication MUST improve between owners and techs, and how more empathy and understanding can completely shift the culture inside a shop. They talk about the risks of leaning too heavily on service information without double checking procedures, especially when safety and liability are at stake. Lucas also gives money advice for technicians, including why thinking long-term and investing in retirement accounts can make a huge difference down the road.
