In this episode, Lucas and David sit down with Jeff Compton, a 23 year veteran of the automotive industry. 

Jeff has worked on everything from Caterpillar D9 Bulldozers to light-duty automotive, and everywhere from tractor-trailers on the side of the road, to 2 bay independent repair shops, to 20 bay Chrysler dealerships.

Jeff is extremely opinionated and brings his experience and perspective to the table on what is plaguing the industry and what he sees as solutions to these problems. 

Although his opinions didn't go completely unchallenged, you’ll likely find his thoughts to be eye-opening as to what may be the prevailing opinion of a lot of experienced technicians in the field today.

HOLY CRAP! I would like to start out by confessing that i had absolutely no idea that putting all this podcast stuff together would take this much time. Seriously ! So thank ALL of you for being so incredibly patient with me as i worked my way through this. The end result is not something that i am proud of simply because as i moved my way from episode one to episode ten i learned a little with each step. By the time i started editing i was completely done recording all of the interviews. The closer i got to the "Release Date", I started to consider burning everything and just starting over from scratch. But what fun would that be.

It was important to me to make episode one kinda an intro to the podcast. I also wanted to make sure that i included the two people that were there for me when i first had the idea to put together my own podcast. All three of us are big podcasts listeners and enjoy our own favorite shows.

So id like to give a big shout out and a very sincere thank you to my two amazing friends Grant and Dianela. You guys gave me the encouragement i needed to dive head first into another adventure. I love both of you to the moon and back, hug hug hug kiss kiss kiss.

In this episode we dive into Grant and Dianela's professional lives.

Dianela is an Educational Diagnostician. If you google it this is what you will find. Educational Diagnosticians are a type of special education teacher who assesses, diagnoses and work with children with learning problems. These professionals operate under a number of titles. They may be called a learning consultant, or learning disabilities teacher, but their duties are the same.

She worked long and hard to get to this position. Now that Grant and Dianela have moved to the state of Colorado she is on the hunt for a new career path as the state of Colorado does not recognize her specialized field. Bummer. But she quickly found an organization that was happy to take her on and i cant wait to find out what new adventure she has gotten herself into. D is wicked smart so trust me she will be just fine.

Grant is a duel status government employee. What that means is that the federal government uses him in two separate capacities. On the civilian side he is a helicopter repair facility supervisor and on the army side he is a UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter crew chief.

How does he have time for all this? The two jobs are completely separate but generally the bulk of what he does happens out of the same facility. As a crew chief Grant is responsible for the passengers on board, helping the pilot with anything behind the pilot seat, and in certain situations serve as the door gunner. That last part typically only occurs in training environments. Not to deduct from Grants over all awesomeness. I just dont want you telling people that a blackhawk crew chief is a door gunner. Thats what the recruiter told Grant when he joined and when he finished his army school training he was shocked to find out it was all a BIG FAT LIE! But its still a wicked sweet job son.
