Chapter 23
The guys went to the apartment and got the things the kids will need to stay the night.
After leaving the apartment they went by the shop to lock up. All three techs were there. Adam had been by here many times but this was David's first time.
He knew he had his own business but hadn't been there before. Chris knew this and wanted to show him around a little bit after he talks to his techs.
Chris greeted the techs, "Hey guys how have things been today?"
One Tech says, "Been great boss man. We had 4 more computers to come in that is in the warehouse. You also have a few messages on your board over there."
"Thanks. Guys I want you to meet Trish's son David. David this is our tech Steve, our other tech here is Eric the last tech here is Rick. Rick was our first tech and he has been here the longest.
These guys take in the computers or things to be repaired when they come in. Gary and I trouble shoot and decide what is wrong with them and make these guys work orders on what to do.
Some things are put on hold while we order parts for them. We also sell different parts and the guys handle that. We do networking for large company's, like the school. Uncle Gary and I usually do those because it is field work.
The guys stay here and handle the counter and they do the repairs when we give them the work orders. That bigger, behind the small wall far counter over there is where they do the repairs. I will show you the warehouse and our office in just a minute."
"Guys, I was wondering if you wanted to each earn 100.00 bonuses tomorrow."
Steve said, "Sure!"
Eric said, "Mo money sounds good to me."
Rick said, "What do you need Chris?"
"Trish needs to have some furniture moved out of her house. It is a sofa, coffee table, end table, Dresser, TV stand, Queen Size bed and a 4 seat dining room table."
Steve answered, "I don't mind Chris even if you didn't give me $100.00 I wouldn't mind helping."
Eric said, "Yeah me too."
Rick said, "You got me too. When do you need us?"
"If you would come in about 9 you can follow me over there. Then when it is done hopefully you will have enough time to get showered and back for work. Thanks guys."
"Now come on David let me finish showing you around. This is the warehouse, this is where we evaluate the things that come in and make work orders for the techs."
David sees a full length left to right wall counter that looks like this is where they do repairs and evaluating. There are shelves above the counter with various clear tubs and tools. There is a shelf with a lot of software in cases. Several stools are in various places.
To the right is a large counter with a paper on them and the sign above it says, Completed work only. To the left is a large shelf with bins of parts. Behind them is a ½ glass wall looking into the office. Next to the office door is another door that says Bathroom.
The blinds to the office are closed and it is dark. Chris opens the door and flips on the light. They go in and Gary and Adam follow them.
Adam in joking sarcasm says, "This is where they make their brains work."
They all laughed.
Chris said, "Yes this is where we work on the lay outs for the networks we do, orders for parts and enter the work orders. We also sit around and relax here on the sofa when we need a break. We have our desk facing each other so we can discuss things and work at the same time."
On the left is Gary's desk. On the right is Chris's desk. They both have name plates. As you first walk in the door to the right is a soft, cushy and with lots of pillows sofa.
Straight ahead is an open door to a small bathroom, a sink and counter, a refrigerator, small counter with a coffee pot. Under the counter are cabinets. Above the sink are cabinets also. The floor is covered with a low pile dark grey carpet. It is the same as in the front of the shop. The warehouse just has large rubber cushion mats.
David said, "This is really cool. You think I could come up sometime and hang out or help out."
