The importance of cost control is something we can all learn more about and the grind never truly stops. Chris also answers a question from a Service Advisor struggling in her drive.

Good advice here. Motivating lazy techs isn't going to happen, but adding more sure can.

[@Chriscollinsinc]

Thanks Alan. Well said

[@samzasap2594]

Laziest, slowest apprentice Ive come across.. His job is mostly handling waiters but takes close to 1hr and 30mins for an oil change at times.. Kills the flow of the entire shop.. Ruins productivity. Supposed to be simplest shop role but ruins the entire shop!

[@ubuntumike5794]

At my current shop all of lower techs are terrible slow and hard headed they seem to think they know what they doing when they don’t

[@tonylaurin9294]

There's a shortage of techs! Youve got to work with what you got! We've put out adds and no one responded! The problem where i last worked is that theres a toxic environment that management didn't want to fix! I teach automotive now, and were having trouble filling classrooms. Other aspect is working at a 150 percent eventually equals burnout! Been there also!

[@shootinstraight2299]

Its not your gender, its your attitude. My dealership has 6 women and one male service adviser the ones with the attitudes are the ones people don't like we don't care if you're a man or a woman.
