>>Apparently all school districts are not like this. No they aren't. The more urban the school, the more inane the hoops you have to jump through. Personally, I don't need the work. I tune for a handful of rural schools that haven't gone crazy yet and still treat me like a professional. As long as there are tuners out there willing to jump through the hoops of insanity they'll keep upping the ante. Me, I don't need it.

List: At the school district where I tune, by the time I arrive there the pianos are in such bad shape that the teachers make all the students leave me alone so I can work in order that they can have a tuned and working piano. In other words, they, so far, have treated me like royalty and they respect me enough to make sure I can provide them with a good instrument. I feel like they are giving me the red carpet treatment when I go there. Apparently all school districts are not like this. Martin Wisenbaker, RPT Houston, Texas
