[pianotech] Ethics and efficacy of part-time tuning

[John Ross]

I can't understand your point.
Are you saying that if a person has a job, he shouldn't do piano tuning on 
the side?
If so, you are completely wrong. If a person wants to do piano tuning on the 
side, to make extra money for his family, then he should.
If his work is inferior, then he will not get a call back, and another tuner 
will get the work.
Then again, he could be doing, for example, the Randy Potter course, and 
doesn't want to let his full time job go, until he is sure that he can make 
it as a tuner.

Everybody does it part time until they have enough business to do it full
time.

What do you think about the ethics and the efficacy of doing piano tuning
and repair as a part-time business when a person has another source of
income?

There is a view that if you are not tuning full-time you will not maintain
your skill at a high enough level.

Best regards,
