Sorry it was an unpleasant experience for you, Lou. Sometimes one goes the
DIY route out of necessity, as when I was a teenager with my first car and
could not afford to pay others for mechanical repairs. It IS a good thing that
I enjoy deducing through disassembly and repair how things work. It can
lead to the desire to modify and improve, too. That is even more interesting.
But I would not make a good mechanic as a career because I do not enjoy
doing the same thing over and over. And some things I do NOT like at all:
working on old rusty machinery or installing drywall comes to mind. I either
avoid those or hire it out. I don't like deadlines either.
I am now actively looking for a skid steer, hopefully one that needs work.
