Episode 81: Getting Along

On this week’s episode of Grease the Wheels we are asking the age-old question, “why can’t we all just get along?” Well, let’s start out with something easy like those friends who only call you when their car is broken. From there, we move into the building with getting along with the parts guys and helping them out as much as you can. It doesn’t have to be a lot, but simple details can quicken you getting the right parts to finish a job. Also, we argue to try to get along with your service advisor, despite their throwing us under the bus at every possible turn with the customers. And finally we talk about the sort of innershop hivemind that develops among technicians, and the possibility that all of our shops are basically social biomes that grow largely in the same ways.

Also, Uncle Jimmy gets REALLY META with the concept of what a technician’s place is in the universe and struggles with the word “ethnicity”.

Hey, we want to know more about you so we can make Grease the Wheels even better in the episodes to come. We also want to know where you’re from so we can hit as many of you as possible in a project coming up very soon on Grease the Wheels.
