How Repairmen Live Part.2 -Who is Suitable for Repairman? - How Repairmen Live Part.2 - What Makes a Good Repairman?

 

Hello,Repairman TanakaI am Tanaka.

This is the second installment of "How Repairmen Live.

 

Part 1 is here.

 

The theme this time is"Who is the right person for a repairman?"is "Who is suited to be a repairman?

There are many different types of repairmen, but I would like to talk about the type of person I personally think is suited to be a repairman.

 

In conclusion

 

I think it is a person who can do something for others!

 

It is no exaggeration to say that most of the repair work on instruments is helping people.

I think that people who can consider it their pleasure to help others are the most suited to be a repairman.

 

Isn't "someone who loves musical instruments" the best suited for this job?

Some of you may be thinking, "I'm not the best at this.

Of course, it is very important to like musical instruments!

 

If "liking the instrument" isfor the sake of othersbut forFor yourselfWhat happens if you turn to

'I'd like to try what would happen if I switched this pickup to this one.'

"Let's see what happens if we change this part."

I will try many things that I am interested in.

 

However,the work of a repairman is not all about what you are interested in.

Most of the jobs are not always about what you are interested in, such as "00 is broken, can you fix it?××Can you make it sound better?

I can do it! I am always left with the question, "Well, what should I do now?

People who are having trouble with their instruments send outWe are all forced to do something new with the

I get a lot of requests from people outside of my own interests.

And as I continue to respond to those requests, what I can do will increase, and more requests will come in, and through repetition, what I can do for many people will increase.

 

In fact, when I talk with various repairmen, they tell me that

I talk to many repairmen and they say, "I haven't done any repairs or modifications on my instruments for years.

I'm always doing maintenance on other people's instruments, and my own instruments are just sitting in the dust.

I often hear such stories.

Well, I myself have a few instruments that I have been neglecting for several years.

And the natural ability to do "osekai," which is important in the repairman element, comes from "for others.

It is also a natural part of being a repairman to be able to say things like, "You didn't tell me about this part, but I think it would definitely be better if I fixed it on the side.

"This is different from what you told me to fix, but I think this is the way to fulfill your request.

These nosinesses are the basis of a repairman. They do not come from a self-centered interest.It is for the sake of the person who entrusted me with the work, and for the sake of the people who use the instrument.

 

 

This is why I talked about "who is suited to be a repairman" based on my own selfish beliefs.

If you are a young student who might be interested in the job of a repairman, please refer to this article.

 

Of course, there are many repairmen who have different ideas from mine. I think all of them are right.

We all may think about who is suited to be a repairman in our own way.
