    James Pretty is like a kid with animals. He is always bringing home a stray old truck that he finds somewhere. I love his channel!

    Some of the best money you will ever spend is sending a couple of good guys to school. Yes you will spend a little but you will gain something special. The guys will get more confidence and show leadership to others. It will reflect in your trucks. Great stuff Tim

      If you send guys to school, you are investing in them. Anyone who you send to school should be made to sign a contract. It dictates that,in the event of them quitting before a certain amount of time, or they wind up being terminated for cause, during that time period, They’re required to immediately repay the cost of the school.
      You don’t want someone taking advantage of the schooling and leaving you out of pocket the expense, without you getting any benefits.

      I totally agree for the most part but these days it’s an “employee market” and the younger generations seem to have no allegiance whenoffered more money elsewhere.

      @@rodleypumpkins4174 The current crop of 20 something’s I have dealt with seem to have little drive, want to text instead of just speaking and wouldn’t have won WW-2. You have to hold their feet to the fire with expectations. If they don’t live up to them, you have to terminate them. You don’t have time for lethargy or malingering on the job.

    I’ve been watching James Pretty for several months. He starts every video with a warm greeting and a weather report. He’s a hard working man. I get worn slick just watching him now, but 20 years ago I could have stayed with him. He’s got a good channel on UA-cam and it’s gratifying to see his channel grow. 👍

    Tim you have a great attitude, employers like you are far and few between, I spent my life in the mechanical field 40+ years. I worked for and with a lot of good and bad people, but you always remember the good over bad. Buying all the tooling to work on a wide range of equipment is a big investment, some employers don't seem to appreciate that level of commitment when it isn't coming from their pocket. It's not often you come across someone like you with your level of understanding and appreciation for the people working for you, keep forging ahead and best of luck to you, family and friends.

    Hi Tim. This is old school from an old retired truck tech. If you put it through just one heat cycle and re-torque all of the bolts it might be a more successful job. If I’m to late and it’s on the road, take the very first opportunity to do this. Great work and I’m a strong fan.

    The biggest thing I like about watching this channel, is that this company is so much like who I worked for out of high school and vo-tech. It’s not a corporate business where employees are just a number. Y’all seem to be a good close group of hard working folks. And I do truly envy Billy Rethwisch’s fleet!

    Your one amazing owner operator and a pleasure to see you running your business and dealing with the peaks and valleys in all businesses. Even if you don't add another single truck..you are a success and your kids will cherish what you have built. Investing in your techs is an excellent idea and will greatly increase their skill sets. I feel great joy in your success and your hard work ethic is truly impressive. It can easily be said of the Gentry and Son legacy nobody's given you anything but you earned it from the sweat of your brow..just as it's written in the old testament. Continued prayers for you and your family for much success going forward.😇🙏🇺🇸👌⛄🎄

    yea its crazy just in the past 15-20 years how much its changed . It used to be a fella would strive to become a mechanic or any position and was grateful for even an unpaid internship to learn the trade before you get hired as a trainee and after years you finally learn enough to get certified and be a actual mechanic . Everyone wanted their own box and tools and was proud .... now days people if you can find one that will work expects everything and not spend a penny , work is sub par at best and there is no pride at all most of the time .... people now days are soo entitled its mindblowing

    I love James Pretty, he is the king of truck lovers and he bust his ass working on them. Mack Super liners ride pretty good. Tim I am self employed and I am exactly in the same scenario you are in, I work on diesel engines small ones though. But I live in the shop and people can't believe the stuff I fix. Shit happens, I always run a tap in the head bolts on the block when I do a head. I learned the hard way just like you. I totally get it. Some people are born mechanics others are not, you can't skip steps it has to be 100% or nothing.
