" eh... he always got the breaks"
That's what I would hear sometimes but the truth is.... I would be either fixing something that broke.... PM'ing something so it wouldn't break or building something new that they would break .... for 40 years!

Taking care of things so they last, means you can keep nice things. Good for you.
With us it was: "Must be nice to afford all those..."
But regardless of the subject, though all those looked new, they had been accumulated over years, just well maintained. "

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

Spent 25 years working at an aircraft parts factory (Boeing who after 12 years sold the factory to a company called Triumph) and with both our maintenance department was the most valuable group in the plant. Not only for repair but for the PM’s done to avoid repairs. It was wise to have those folks on your good side.
