    North Kansas City Schools Automotive Technology

    Kansas City, MO

    Academia has a reputation for being caught up in its own little bubble, lagging behind what’s taught or used for work in “the real world.” Being an educator is demanding enough, so it makes sense that teachers often prefer to tweak lessons plans only so much year after year. But for Jack Stow, automotive technical instructor for North Kansas City Schools in Missouri, that’s not enough. His goal is not only to advance his students’ knowledge every day but also to update automotive education standards in Missouri to keep pace with a fast-moving industry.

    Top Shop Challenge: With MLB season fully underway, does your shop ever do team outings to a game? Even if it's not an MLB game, what other things do you do with the team?

    Here at Carr, we believe in recognizing excellence with excellence. This past weekend, we had the pleasure of treating our hardworking BDC (Business Development Center) team to an unforgettable outing at Top Golf!

    I know you're just answering WrenchWay's question of the month, so this isn't aimed at y'all personally, but I learned a long, long time ago, "You don't make friends in the shop." Flat rate is a cut throat business. Nearly every technician in the shop will stab you in the back for favor, hours, better work, or advantage. No one is trust worthy, so keep your head down, mind your own bay, and go home at the end of the day. Making friends in the shop is just giving ammunition to your betrayer. So, no, I'll never participate in after hours extra curricular activities with the work place. I'm there to earn a living, not to make friends. I think most shops know this because they haven't tried to do anything special. So, to Carr Chevrolet, good for you for having a different attitude in the BDC. Do your techs also participate?
