No, patience is a virtue. That's why I can read Hebrew.
Dude, I have been taking things apart since I was 5. If it moved or ticked or beeped, I tore it apart. Later, I had the biggest thrill in life learning to build Hot Rodded Chevrolet 350's, 427's and 454's. My neighbor was a gear head and he started me on dissasembling the dirty old engines with nothing but a torque wrench and a set of sockets. All by hand !!! Of course as I progressed and aged under his wisdom, I was dropping in pistons, cams, figuring bore sized for specific HP and this stuff was surgically clean. He was relentlessly perfect and his shop was not only cleaner than his house, it was twice the size. no matter what he did, he invested his entire conciousness into it. His mentality was " My Way or the Highway". If you did not take the time to learn what was expected, or have faith in yourself, he would never allow someone to get involved in any of his projects. This guy was a Master Carpenter, Master Glazier, Master Metal Worker, Master Welder and had an aptitude that was beyond belief. Even Mathematically he was a human calculator. Now, I am not saying that I was not already predisposed genetically to being obsessive and overly thourough, but my training sure the hell put me in that direction. If you learn something, learn it right. If you don't want to, then don't talk about is as if you know. There is only one way with me, " My way or the Highway. Someone took the time to spend with a fatherless kid and demand their best. Thankfully, he did it right. I have never paid a single cent in my entire life for an automobile repair. I get my *** in there and do it myself. The addage is correct. If you want something done right, do it yourself.
It's just who I am.
