Within Spec means you did the work, you know what the number's supposed to be, and you're putting your name on it. That's earned through experience and lessons learned. There's a lot of guys talking about the trades right now online. Most of them spent six months in the lube bay, jumped to service writing and now make content about a job they barely knew. Techs sniff right through that in about four seconds. We're still in it. Still turning wrenches, still under the truck, still running into stuff we've never seen before. We're going to give it to you straight - good and bad. We're not here to whine. Every problem we bring up, we'll tell you what we'd actually do about it. We failed first so you don't have to. Somebody got us here. This is us paying it forward.
