The Good, Bad and Ugly of Insurance Work

Insurance work is challenging to say the very least.  An event comes along that suddenly changes a person's home.

This event could be from:

• Hail
• Wind
• Trees
• Water
• Fire
• Vehicle Impact
• or several other less common means

Once this event happens it is always best to account for the safety and well being of every person and pet in your household.  Depending on the event it may be best to be sure that there is not a gas leak or the pilot lights on the water heater, furnace or stove/oven did not get snuffed out by the event.

Be sure there is no electrical lines down outside before you go.

Make sure neighbors are accounted for and safe.

All of this I mentioned above occurs within a few moments of the events conclusion.

Then, it's the process of rebuilding and or repairing the home to the exactly how it was at the moment immediately preceding the event.  The event occurred at 12:01 AM?  Then I am talking about how this home was at 12:00:59 Seconds.

I will be talking more about this in the days to come.  I will be publishing my non-insurance related articles as well.  Next on the list is my in depth  look at 3 and 4 season rooms.

Work Smarter, Do More

Hold true one’s moral fiber, work hard, learn and work harder with what you recently learned.

Wait what?  Did you write - 'learn something and then work harder with what you recently learned'?

Absolutely I did and why not?

Work smarter not harder is a gruff verbal quip from people that most of the time are lazy sons of guns and they are trying to say hey...lay back a little and take a break.

I am of the opinion that once your learn something new, it will most likely enable you to work harder, longer and in turn be more productive.

If you truly do work smarter that is great!  By that I mean once you learn or realize a way that produces fantastic professional results - quicker than you were able to before, it should enable to you to work smarter and harder for your customer.

I know through my years of experience the fastest way to remove (to sub-floor)  - ceramic tile installed over original sheet good products glued to an under layment that is in turn stapled (very many staples most of the time) to the sub-floor.  In turn that allows me to work smarter and therefore harder for my customer which in turn increases the productivity thereby shortening the overall length of time my customer doesn't have to be with out a floor.

That allows me to move onto other areas of the project sooner.  It allows me the time to gain a little ground that may have been lost to a product change order or an extra work order that came up during the project.  

Each phase of what I do, every day...I attempt to do it better than before.  Read, learn, read.  Watch videos, attend seminars, take coursework.  All in a day's (and night's) work around here for me.

I enjoy and take great pride in providing an ever evolving company and in turn final product for each one of my customers.
