Mitch Schneider and Shop Tour with John Constantin [AW 071]

On this episode of the daily with Syl Stein I am chatting with the host of Chatting with the Constantins on anchor.Fm John Constantin. Unfortunately his daughter destiny couldn’t join us today but she was not feeling well. On this podcast we are talking about how his podcast came about. Jon talks about being a proud father and husband and wife working with his daughter has led him to a great journey and into podcasting. I am sharing The biographies and links: Destiny’s Biography:  Destiny J. Constantin is 26 years old and resides in Lockport, NY, with her family. She is pursuing her second Master's Degree in Higher Education to fulfill her dream of becoming a teacher. She is currently tutoring undergraduate college students, assisting them with their English Composition coursework, and teaching them how to improve and edit their writing assignments. In October of 2020, she graduated with honors from Southern New Hampshire University with a Master's Degree in English and Creative Writing. She strives to become a best-selling author one day. She is the co-author of The Journey with Dad and The Journey with Dad 2. The Journey with Dad series was written with her father, John Constantin, and they are children's' stories about a father and daughter taking mysterious road trips after facing challenges. In December 2020, Destiny Constantin published two short stories titled "Murder by a Cupcake" and "The Story of Lady Sapphire" in Coffee House Writer's Anthologies, along with a nonfiction poem titled "My Body is Like A Roller-Coaster." Destiny is currently writing her first young adult novel, titled "I'm No Ordinary Girl." Destiny Constantin is a self-taught baker and enjoys baking for friends and family. Destiny is a book reviewer/blogger for Reedsy Discovery and Functionally Fictional. Destiny enjoys reading books by Cassandra Clare, Nicolas Sparks, John Green, Veronica Roth, Gayle Forman, and many others. Her favorite book is Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. She enjoys writing mysteries, children's stories, and teen fantasy because it's what she knows and loves to read. Dad's Biography:  John Constantin was born in 1972 in Buffalo, New York. He grew up with a younger brother and an older stepbrother and stepsister. A graduate of Riverside High School, he overcame a learning disability, contrary to others' expectations, to attain a degree in computer repairs from the Educational Opportunity Center. After holding two jobs in the computer field and moving to Lockport, N.Y. John is currently an undergraduate student at Southern New Hampshire University studying Information Technology. John has been married for 28 years to his "very supportive" wife, Tina. Destiny, their daughter, currently attends Capella University, where she is studying adult education. John's inspiration for The Journey with Dad series came from his daughter Destiny. "Watching my daughter go through a drastic life change and still have the motivation to keep moving towards her dreams." John believes including Destiny's life experiences in Jasmine's character makes the book unique.

Mike Shultz

Jim Fleischman

Panel:John Constantin from Bison Fleet Specialists in Buffalo, NYJim Fleischman from Automotive Alley in Arcade, NYMike Schultz from Schultz Auto and Truck Repair, Hamburg, NYJohn Constantin from Bison Fleet Specialists in Buffalo, NY, has strived to bring quality service and superior workmanship to the vehicle repair industry in Western New York. When John first started out as a technician, he was determined to identify with his customers, making sure every effort was made to maintain the integrity of Bison Fleet Specialists workmanship, and establish a long-term “care” relationship with each person who passed through their service center. John’s personal goal was to inform each customer of basic maintenance steps they could perform to keep their RVs, Trucks, Trailers, Buses, Campers &amp; Cars running at optimum performance levels, achieved by following a few simple guidelines.  Listen to John’s previous episodes HERE.Jim Fleischman and his wife Shelly own Automotive Alley in Arcade, NY. Jim attended Alfred State College for Automotive Tech. He went to work for a Ford Dealership as a shop foreman. Jim’s racing and organizational experience came by being part of a race team that ran Busch and NASCAR. He was recruited from his alma mater, Alfred State College, and became an instructor. Jim always wanted to teach and it was fate. He spent fourteen years as an instructor. He loved building relationships with his students.  He was balancing his teaching job and owning a shop while Shelly ran the business for him. Jim ultimately left his teaching job and went to work full-time in the business. Shelly’s background was accounting which was good for the business overall. Jim believes in a strong process driven company. He is all about improving efficiency. Saving steps for productivity gains. Anyone can study their inefficiencies and make changes to improve productivity. He templated his systems against NASCAR. Immaculate, organized and tools quickly reached and found. Jim perpetually works on streamlining to increase his productivity.   Automotive Alley also specialized in street rod, hot rods, upgrades, and restorations. For Jim, the word “can’t” is not in his vocabulary. Listen to Jim’s previous episodes HERE.Mike SchultzMike Schultz started out in his dad’s garage, went to vocational school and got a job at a Mobil station when he was 16. After the Mobil station, he worked at a Chrysler dealer until he went to college.After graduating from Ohio Diesel from their auto course Mike jumped around from job to job for a while. He found a home at an independent repair shop where he took care of a fleet account and ran the shop when the boss was gone,Mike decided to open his own shop in 2010. The shop was on a dead end street. He realized that he needed more exposure in his town so it was easier for new customers could find the shop. In March 2018 of this year, he moved to into a highly visible location, not to mention cleaner and brighter.
