When they let the truck off the jacks I used my iPhone level to see how close they'd got the camper to level. I had already checked their shop floor... it was perfectly level. The camper was absolutely level... it was just what I'd asked for.
I tipped the workers... we all smilled.
I was really impressed... I still am.

A month or two later some truck camper people were heading back to Canada on I-75 from their winter vacation in Florida. They had broken a weld in the slide out on their camper... they couldn't get in the camper and were looking at motels. It was a Saturday... I saw their plea on Facebook when they were just north of Chattanooga...
I phoned Mr Henegar and asked him if he knew anyone that could weld the broken piece for them... I new that he was closed. He told me that he had a couple of guys working overtime on a Fleet Truck... if the campers could get there within 2 hours he'd have them look at it.
The Spring shop is just of the I-640 bypass in Knoxville... the campers could see it from the Interstate highway. I got ahold of them and told them about his offer.
They stopped, his men did the repair and even painted it... then Mr henegar did a very nice thing... the shop didn't charge the vacationers for the work... just wished them well.
NOTE: the folks with the free gift of labor have never said thank you...
I thanked the guys at the shop... what a nice thing they did
