It is not the first time i have been in Tony's workshop. But since now i have a purpose of observing how this workshop is managed, i will stand at different angles such as the boss or the customers to look at it. wish i can come up with some really valuable suggestions to improve the workshop. the reason why i choose this workshop is because it is medium size which is just the right size for those who wants to set up their own garage. the other reason is that since i know Tony very well, i can get a lot of good information from him.
this is the picture of the workshop working area i took from last wed with the permission of Tony's (including the pics below). how to manage to use the hoists is quite important and they have to be inspected during a period of time to ensure they are safe to use.
the left hoist is mainly used for car services, the middle one is mainly used for tire jobs and brake replacement. the right one is mainly used for heavy duty jobs such as transmission or engine repairs.
the reception room
when i first came here, i thought it was too small. but as a matter of fact, the customers barely spend their time inside except when they pay the bills. the room on the upstaires is the dining room which is equiped with micro-wave, refrigerator and other things for the employees to have their lunch or teas. the great thing is that this workshop provides some free food such as fruit, biscuit and drinks.
the most thing i like this wokrshop is that it has a lot of tools which vary from different prices and brands. it really makes a lot of diffrent when you have all the tools you can use.
when i took this picture, one of the employees is cutting the wasted tire for recycling
all kinds of juices for cars are found here, the shelf and three big tanks are freely provide by EIF as long as you buy oil from them. but Tony told me that it is expensive but the same quility with the others. he is considering to choose another brand of oil.
speical tools and all kinds of engine, transmission flushing fluid and brake cleaners
this is the work area for Tony woking on electrical stuff
look at this, a motorbike lifting. one of the employees is also an expert on motorbikes repair. he used to be a champion on motorbike races in Philippines. he really has a good reputation in this area.
