I don't think that they are rare, I jus think that they are not
affiliated with "dealer" type operations...

What I have found is that generally the better, more skilled techs are
located in the older parts of the city, frequently in little *old*
strip shopping malls. The newer, flashier places (i.e. dealers in big
shopping malls or in JoAnne's) seem to send their work out (and they
generally have no idea what is wrong, how long it will take, and how
much it will cost) These OSMGs seem to charge less as well. (less
overhead, I expect)

No worries :)

looks like the general opinion was that even if we could have gotten
them, the documents might not have been worth much anyway *shrug* oh
well...

My local sewing machine shop has seen alot of me and I asked them if I
could apprentice there for a quarter and just soak up as much as I
could...

they didn't say no =)

so I will see what they say here soon... they are supposed to conflab
about it and get back to me by the end of the week...

so we shall see :)

they also expressed interest in possible inviting Ray White to run one
of his classes in their class room :) I am hopeing they do that... I
"might" be able to land the free hostess class if we can get 10 people
signed up.... hehe

So we shall just have to be patient and see...

why is being patient so hard???
