Take Care of Your Crap! w/Brian Sanchez

Today on the show - I sit down with Brian Sanchez, the warranty and repair manager for Mystery Ranch, to talk about taking care of your stuff, getting it repaired, and the whole process involved...

Show Notes

Every wonder where all the fire packs get rounded up and shipped off to get repaired at the end of the season?

Well, today on the show, we talk about just that! Brian Sanchez is the dude that is in charge of fixing all the broken, burned, and scuffed up fireline packs from you folks in the field! Brian has been at Mystery Ranch for damn near 10 years. He started out on the sewing floor, and now he is in charge of the warranty and repair department...

Make no mistake, he keeps a list of the crews that are notorious for beating the hell out of their packs - He's even tossing around the idea of making a "hall of fame" for those poor, abused, and neglected fire packs.

Moral of the story: take care of your stuff!
