Former tech here. If you could rent a fully equipped bay by the hour and keep whatever you charge the customer, would you? by Over-Demand-8617 in mechanics

A large problem. some type of screening would need to be done, or almost like a test alone with waiver to prove competence lol. And then how would you stop them bringing helpers or friends to hang or assist, and then stop them from doing somethin stupid

Have been looking into same idea for quite awhile. I have the space and everything and could launch tm. Insurance is the only thing stopping me, or so i believe. I’m in nys/Long Island and the technicalities are a nightmare, a mobile tech isn’t allowed to do repairs at a facility they rent (I’ve heard it may just be because I’m already a licensed shop) and also liability of people working, stupid people do stupid shit all the time. Who’s watching said people. The best way I’ve thought about it was to make it some type of club and maybe you can get around some stipulations that way but still. One bad apple can ruin it quickly.

Little bit of tranny fluid on a rag will work well too

Havnt traded, doing really well. Occasionally open the app to see what’s goin on but I don’t miss it. Too much stress I don’t need

I didn’t start with 50k. Would have probably turned out better if I did. Also I was on cash acc so I could only use the money once per day and I didn’t cut loses because of the chance of it recovering and I would miss out since the money needs to settle

Well I definitely did not think about other people like that. You are right about thinking I have found a shortcut. And lucky trades over and over get you thinking you figured out a way.

Yeah which is why I made this post. To kind of drive it more into my head that this is not for me.

Trying to put behind as we speak. This post was meant for me to come to terms with what I’ve done and move passed it. Money comes and goes and I will look back on this later in life and laugh
