You missed your kids growing up. Now you're missing the grandkids.
You didn't buy a business.
You bought a job you can't quit.
60-80 hours a week.
Back on the tools.
Writing estimates between oil changes.
Putting out fires that never stop coming.
Meanwhile...
Your kid's game? Missed it.
Date night? Rescheduled. Again.
That "freedom" you imagined when you opened the shop?
Nowhere to be found.
Here's the brutal truth nobody told you:
If you take a day off and everything falls apart...
You don't own a business.
You ARE the business.
And that's not sustainable.
It's not scalable.
And it's slowly killing the thing you built.
Your spouse knows it.
Your body knows it.
Deep down—you know it too.
But here's what most shop owners miss:
The answer isn't working harder.
It's not another productivity hack.
It's not "grinding until it works."
The answer is building a team you actually trust.
Not just bodies in bays.
Technicians who show up.
Who give a damn.
Who can run the show when you're not there.
Because when that happens?
You're not just hiring help.
You're buying your time back.
You're buying fewer fires.
You're buying the freedom you thought you were signing up for in the first place.
So let me ask you:
If your team was solid and fully staffed—how would your week look different?
