On this week’s episode we delve into the churning gears of capitalism and talk about the Grind. The Grind begins the moment your feet hit the floor, and with the sheer amount of knowledge that we have to do our job, it doesn’t stop until our heads hit the pillow. This week we are going over the article, “Five Common Traits of Savvy People Who Escape the Rate Race” and straight away - two thumbs up! One of the best ways to beat the grind while you’re still in it is to make sure that you use all of your allotted vacation time, because after only a few years of not using any of it you will begin to notice that you’re wearing very thin. It’s also a good time to brush up the resume and get out and talk to some of the other shops either in your area or possibly the area you are vacationing to see what they're looking for and what they pay. We also go deeper into the idea of working for yourself and talking all of the money for the labor you produce in various capacities, and we are here to be a resource for what you need to get started. 

Also Uncle Jimmy exposes one of the weak links of connected cars and talks about some of his favorite people who escaped the grind.
