Quote History Quoted:
The real truth is it depends on the individual. And management.
I have a dude that is just fucking flawless, like zero comebacks, pulls fucking diagrams, the whole nine. Do you think he turns a lot of work?
Funniest part, he's absolutely fantastic, but do the customers like it? Nope. Do the customer facing positions like it to explain why their car wasn't ready on time because he found other stuff? Nope.
So now we have a fantastic tech, doing a really good job, who the customers hate (despite in all their retard rants demanding they can't find a good one) and who I constantly need to protect from customer facing positions for doing their job.
The reality of the matter is most people just don't care and they're clicking fast and cheap of the 3 boxes, then bitching about it. The guys that do cheap and quality are getting run out. Jokes on them, I know who to take my car to for every specialty, including glass and body work.
Never choose fast unless it's an emergency. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quote History Quoted:Quoted:Quoted:
You mean like actually cleaning mating surfaces on the caliper and greasing the slide/contact points? It takes just a couple minutes but I'd bet 99% of all [paid] mechanics do as little actual prep and cleaning work as possible but they damn well will charge ''shop material'' fees 100% of the time. I'm an anal little shit in cleaning, lubing, and using proper lubes, sealants or antiseize on bolts and such. Bullshit. The smart ones absolutely do it right. Want to know why? Because if it's not done right and it comes back, they get to fix it for free until the customer is happy. The real truth is it depends on the individual. And management.
