Yesterday someone got the panties in a wad over the way I was answering some questions. I generally just ignore that stuff. Then this morning, someone has has bestowed a gift - the gold badge. So thank you whomever it is! It was a nice offset to the former. I have no idea who it was, whether they post on this thread or not, but maybe they will see it. :thumbsup:

I’m sure they will (it wasn’t me) and quite sure you deserve the kindness.

:thumbsup:
 
Now that’s a nice piece of history for this young man!

“Snowboarder Shaun White has won America’s 100th Winter Olympic gold medal, throwing down a spectacular final run in the men’s halfpipe.

The United States is only the second country to win 100 winter golds. It trails Norway, which started Wednesday with 121. Germany is third with 92.”
 
I used to run my Auto Upholstery business that way. It incentivizes the workers to do more work and earn more pay but still keeps quality high. They do more, make more and so do I.

My guys got base plus. Base work plus whatever they finished beyond that in a day. If they got part way finished but did not complete, they got the work done as a credit on the next day’s base. If they stayed late and completed it, they got full payment for the overage on that day.

Sometimes I would leave the shop for the day and they were still going. I would reconcile the work done the next morning. Some of my guys would double their pay in busy weeks. If we were slow, they were always guaranteed to get base even if the work wasn’t there. I ate it, not them.
One way to keep staff happy. My year with the ford dealer i never once made bonus. BUT not one come back. I did, however get to fix other techs shortcomings.
 
You related to Hillary?:rofl:
Not even close I am a left coast baby :p

@memike searching for Midwest MOPAR shows, and saw one this spring at Mo-Kan dragway in Asbury, Mo near Joplin. Said it was their 16th annual...ever heard of it, or gone??
No, but I am going to look it up, thank you for the update :thumbsup:
 
Morning all....memike we're considering that show.

I'll ask in the show forum and see if I can find something out. I'll report back if I get a response.
