"I have been repairing and painting cars since high school. It started because my parents could not afford to buy me a respectable car to drive to school. So I purchased one from the junk yard and fixed it up and painted it. Wow, now I had the coolest car in school! I enjoyed the work on it and made it my career. I opened my shop in 1985 and have been going strong since. I am a hands-on owner and for that reason needed a phone that would work for me in that respect. I found the Plantronics model way back in the 90s and have been updating the units since. They are rugged enough for the type of environment that I work in. Thanks Plantronics."
