T, Ayers Highland NY Not only does jamming your thighs under the keybed help support the back, but the vibrations actually help me tune better. I feel like I'm more "in tune" with the piano, than when I stand up. Wim As far as the dress code, never shorts, and never a t-shirt, even here in the tropics. I wear slacks and an Aloha shirt, with sandals or shoes and socks. -----Original Message----- From: Ayerspiano at aol.com To: pianotech at ptg.org Sent: Sun, Mar 14, 2010 1:30 pm Subject: Re: [pianotech] Premium service In a message dated 3/14/2010 7:23:28 PM Eastern Daylight Time, ifixpiano at gmail.com writes: I now wear jeans, ALL the time, nice dress shirts but I don't have to replace my pants so often or worry about staining them with the detris that invariably comes out of an action cavity along with the action. I've seen techs wear t-shirts & shorts, I'm not that relaxed, just practical. If I'm likely to end up on someone's floor fixing or adjusting a pedal, I may as well dress for it.
