So, welcome, Rex. This is the best ongoing learning forum for pianos  
in the world. Glad you found us, and glad you understand its value.  
Tell us more about the types and brands of pianos you prep, and the  
time frame you're working under, if any.  That will help us focus you.

"....gone from hearing “tune this piano, don’t touch anything else”  
from the sales person(s) to “come in and do what you need to get the  
pianos ready to sell” from the store owner..."

That's amazing; what an opportunity for you to anchor and flourish a  
career. Keep coming around here, and asking sincere questions.There's  
regulation lists in quite a few places; have the store get whatever  
materials the manufacturer provides for their instruments regarding  
preparation; tell the owner you're really interested in educating  
yourself, and show him that you are---subscribe to the Piano  
Technician's Journal, buy other books, start going to the PTG chapter  
meeting closest to you. Live, and be, a humble student, and you can  
build a skill, and a business, that will treat you like a king for  
the rest of your life.
