Hello Ulises

Every job needs the proper way to execute it, along with some qualities on the part of the person who is to execute its tasks. You call it “strategy”.
As this word is of Greek origin, I fully understand its meaning. It means “to follow a general plan”, which gives to your actions a logic sequence, which in turn is what we need to reach success.
Nevertheless, I prefer another (Greek again) term, which is “methodology” or simply “method” which has almost the same meaning, but it is more specific. The general plan is now a specific-narrowed down plan, and it fits better when used in problem solving.
In conclusion, yes, working without any plan, no matter how we call it, is the best way to enter an odyssey… (And as your name, Ulises, has a direct connection with this story, you must always use a plan you have prepared in advance)…!!
Please excuse my delay to answer you.

Hello Aziz

How come we have almost the same name? Are we relatives? (Just joking)!

Thank you too.

Hello Gary

I accept that what you describe is a great part of our (not so bright as it should be) reality, but as all things in life, this behaviour of ours should have a limit...
Just keep in your mind that "the improperly repaired electronic equipment returns to the technician for a new repair, but its owner doesn't"...
And if ever science finds that there is something in this world that travels in a higher speed than that of light, no doubt this will be the bad reputation...

Hello Nimal

Thank you for your positive comment. I only found one protection relay defective, which was cutting its one channel output to the relevant loudspeaker and decided to replace both of the relays.
The previous technician found that this channel was completely burned out and replaced the entire power output stage.
Apparently, this stage was first burned out for some reason then the relay got stuck due to excessive current passed through its contacts.
This could have been happened simply because of inadequate cooling, resulting from an improper working place of the amplifier which didn't let enough fresh air to enter the unit in order to cool it, while disturbing the hot air to come out of the unit escaping in the environment. This is the most usual case of failures when audio amps are located in pieces of home furniture which form closed cabinets.

Sadly we are all a dying breed these days where speed, board swapping and hence charging customers through the nose is the norm!

You are also right it can destroy a business just a few customers reporting to their friends and other businesses that you do a bad job!
