If you happen to need a 50 lb tank of gas, or a 30 lb torch, or a 20
lb vacumn up there - get to humpin' it. Then bring it all down again.


And you better get 4 or 5 calls done, minimum, on a slow day.


TV repairmen are wusses.


TV repairmen are extinct. Nobody is going to pay $500 to fix a $500 TV.
There was a while when some shops could stay in business fixing big
screen (40"+) tv's but that was only while such TV's cost $5000. Those
days are pretty much gone.


You might have a better chance getting a TV repaired by an outfit that
sells audio visual gear to schools and other institutions. Most of the
TV repair companies have diversified in to general electronic repair
outfits. I know one guy who is repairing sewer cams and video games in
addition to televisions.
