Auto Repair Careers

The biggest issues are most young people are not interested. Second is no one is willing and patience of new people learning. Third as there are a lot of 30-40 year olds looking for a job but they have families now and can,t possibly work for low $$$. If you want a good man for life it’s going to cost you in the beginning. Hourly rate are going up Mc Donald’s starting at 15.00, Amazon 22.00, shops at 19.00. Get a 40’s year old guy and be very patient start him off at 20.00 (remember he has a family) have decent medical insurance pay for some classes give regular raises and you’ll get a loyal 20/30 year employee.
Auto mechanics never made good money not working for someone else anyway. if there was good money to be made young people would be interested. When I got out 12 years ago, I made 40 grand a year, now I'm behind a desk making 65 plus. No Im not a manger in the auto business, I changed careers . Auto is a hobby once again thank god :) its fun when its a hobby.

P.S. I know there is a smartass out there who will say " my brother in law makes 75 K a year at the dealership" well good for him, can he make 75 K a year every year for 20 years for a consistent career salary? Id bet not.
