- Learning during work. We have a weekly meeting on Wednesdays where we all have lunch together that is supplied by the company, then go over anything shop related that the employees would like to learn about.
- Saturdays we work 8am-12pm optional for employees unless we are busy enough that we require overtime to be worked. We will give at least a day notice on if we need overtime to be worked. If the employee had prior plans, we understand, and will not force you to work.
