The industry did this to itself, and while i cannot imagine the pain and stress of working 80hrs+ and hitting dead lines…no one pulled the brakes on the train, covid revealed how absolutely deficit heavy the gaming community was operating under. this happened once before, history isn’t repeating but its dropping and spitting hell fire rap bars

As someone who used to run a louis rossman electronics repair business for a couple years before i burned out.

LG G5 was and still is my point to for perfectly fixable devices.

Motorola is trash because you have to dismantle the phone from the back layer by layer just to reach the front screen.

HTC was even worse with two tier motherboards and octopuss ribbon cables were a nightmare to navigate.

iPhone was/ is possibly the easiest fucking phone to fix, ironically…however by the iphone 8 and onwards apple found increasingly shitty ways to make 3rd party repairs nearly impossible.

windows phones, nokia, and others were hit or miss. tablets were long winded affairs but generally easy due to their inherent size.

ive been out of the game since 2019 when covid dropped. id really like to hear the inside baseball on any current operators running repair business.

i used Repair Shopr software to manage my customers. idk if thats still the go to or if another has bested it.

"Let me ask you something. When you come in on Monday and you’re not feeling real well, does anyone ever say to you, “Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays?”
