Fake reality show

Were to begin they never address what got the garage in to the mess there in they basically just give the shop a makeover. I am sure Rawlings is getting a kickback for using certain equipment he never forgets to drop their name. They insult mechanics that are way better than them. They have deadlines that are fake they are suppose to be doing these huge jobs in 6 days not happening. The project manager is a joke who ever heard of a project manager not knowing what is going on. He shows up to the job and the guys are standing outside doing nothing why ? The temp dropped at night they couldn't get the heat on and had no way of getting heaters why ? Project manager Russ must have turned his cell phone off because he thinks he is a tv star not a manager. I would fire my project manager for something that stupid. I am not being mean and the word stupid is the perfect word for this. The project manager does not actually do any physical labor he makes sure everyone else is doing it. If you don't have supplies or a job is shut down because he could not answer his phone and pick up some heaters and drop them off he is gone. You have to remember a project manager gets a big paycheck and his duties is to keep everything on track and everyone working. That's it and if he can't do that then it is time for a new one and put him back on demo or something. I was watching him hang from a ceiling fan breaking the blades of the motor. That was a waste of time and plain old stupidity. I can say these things because I have been a project manager I run a successful business and I have seen guys go out of business even though they were very good at the actual work. Billing, payroll, insurance etc.. Scheduling clients, estimates, getting the job done in the time you promised. These are just some of the things that have killed a business. Then Rawlings takes the garage owner to a car wash and say's ask them to recommend you when their customers ask about getting their car fixed. Yeah that's about 1 new customer honestly who has ever asked a car wash to recommend a garage ?The other place was just a regular gas station like a Cumberland farms again no one asks these places for a garage unless they broke down in front of it. Marketing is important but just changing the sign is not marketing. You want people to believe these garages actually went on and made money you need to show were they are 60 days to a year later remember these are taped. They need to show someone going over how they are running their business and figure out why they are losing money and fix that. One of the best carpenters I ever saw could not bid a job right he was a terrible businessman a hell of carpenter but a terrible businessman. I went over everything with him ten times he finally agreed to do it my way he is worth several million dollars today. I did not replace his tools or teach him how to build I taught him how to run a business. To sum up this show can be fun to watch just don't think this is reality it couldn't be further from reality if you tried.
