Speaker 1: I was nervous because I’m techno challenged. Remember, I’m old, okay? I’m sixty years old. I’m an old man, so I’m techno challenged to say the least.
Again, we have really, really, really patient girls in here that really helped me a lot because I don’t know what’s going on with it. But they make it all on my phone to where all I have to do is hit the button and put my fingerprint in. I don’t have to remember codes and all the other junk. They made it very easy for me to use it. And I’ll tell you right now, if I can catch on to it, your program will work with anybody because I’m a dinosaur.
Not having to keep up with a whole bunch of paper in the truck. Because remember what we do, we stay wet. We work in weather. Paperwork sometimes gets a little bit messy. So having it on the phone, and they can change anything they want to while we’re in the field, that’s great. Send it right to our phones.
We do an on-call service. We are a twenty-four hours, seven days a week company. Okay? And whenever they call us after hours, they can send it to our phone, and we don’t have to worry about coming to the office and getting paperwork. We don’t have to worry about, okay, say we’re too far away to go get paperwork, we still need this job. Now we have to write everything down, keep it all straight, and then transfer it from our notes to a form.
ServiceCore has made it to where it’s all in our phones, and we can do it all right on the job. It makes us more efficient because now we can finish a job on-site, complete all the paperwork in our phones on-site, and submit it. Now the girls in the office can take that and bill a customer in the same day or within twenty-four hours. Instead of waiting for us, sometimes we don’t get back to the office while it’s open, and it could take two days, three days for us to get our paperwork back in, which puts the company behind in billing. I know that’s not my part of the job, but it’s all relevant to what we do.
In the field, the biggest thing is they can send me anything they want to to my phone, and I get it right now.
I was skeptical of it, but I like it. I do. I like the direction that companies go with it. I like how easy I can get all of my work orders to me right now. I don’t have to wait. I love that. I like being able to clear my work orders, get them to the office. Now my responsibility is done. Now it’s on somebody else. See, so that as a driver is great.
Not having to keep up with all the paperwork, not having to worry about getting one dirty or maybe something went to fall, and I grabbed it with a dirty glove, and now I gotta rewrite that whole paperwork because I’m not gonna give it to them like that. So I’m a fan. And I wasn’t at first. I’m not gonna lie. I wasn’t. But the more we use it, the more I get comfortable with it, the more I like it.
You can’t hurt it. And once they explained to me that no matter what you push, if you’ve already got anything in it, it stays. You have to go into it to delete. I’m like, okay. So I can’t hit a wrong button and lose all of my information. Once they told me that, I got a little bit more comfortable. Because that’s my biggest fear, hitting the wrong thing and everything goes gone. And then you’re like, uh-oh. But they assured me that it’s Jim proof.
