Week 4

I was absent Monday and Tuesday due to unexpected oral surgery.  I strted performing my Brake Services this week and it's very educational to find out that some shops have differetnt specialty tool's than others.  Comparing the tool's that I have used at the City of Everett, Stanwood/Camano School District, and the shop at BTC I have learned that one tool is much more valuable and important as the next.  Some tools I have used are easier than others but each one holds it's own importance to a certain job at hand.  I did a little researching on Wheel bearing adjustment and Wheel Seals later in the week, and I never saw these types of procedures in the shops that I have worked in so it was very educational to discover that there is more to just slapping everything on and hoping we don't see it back in the shop next week lol.  The rest of the week I am just going to continue to do the Brake Service assignments laid out in our agenda for the nexct couple weeks.
