Thanks, Joe, for your comments and support at Auto Shop Owner. I keep finding that common sense is missing in many decisions. Just one idea ... when you are working with your team and looking for buy-in on an idea or a change, wouldn't it be nice to ask your team, 'does this make sense?'; then sit back and listen without comment. A monumental learning moment, and your team will appreciate that you involved them and that you are driving common sense ideas and decisions.
