I understand that you fuckers don't like my attitude, but what about the substance of what I'm saying do you find to be wrong?
It's fine to dislike someone because of their attitude, but that doesn't make what they're saying any less valid just because they are a douche in how they say it.
Jimbo it's all about presentation , if you come off as a raging know it all ass clown people are going to be less receptive of your message . copy ?
2 things:
1) you're coming off like you were born the day before
2) we have been there dealing w/shitty service writers, let me tell you one thing~ things will never change

Cherokar!
I started posting on PBB because I couldn't find any good "professional" auto mechanic forums where people wanted to discuss technician issues, the industry and the like, so I came there (and by extension, here) hoping to find other techs and to get their view points on the issues I was bringing up that don't really interest or pertain to people outside of this field. Wasn't looking for an echo chamber, just to bounce my ideas off other's that work in the automotive field and deal with many of the same things all techs deal with.
BTW I have had people on here agree with points I have made, maybe not the whole sentiment, but you can't say that none of my points are legitimate
And I know my attitude makes me sound like a preachy know it all, but honestly what's the problem in talking with other people in this field about my thoughts and what theirs are? I spend lots of time thinking about how I can advance in my career, work more efficiently, make the job easier on the next mechanic, etc. and I want to share my experiences and what I feel is the best way to approach this that I've found SO FAR and maybe learn a different/easier/better way.
And this is the fucking internet, everybody sounds like a know it all asshole behind a keyboard
I've responded to most of your posts, but they've been ignored. I'm a seasoned a tech, I've worked indie shops from the beginning. So don't cry that other full time techs don't respond. Most of the guys on here are back yard so it yourselfers, or wheelers, or trolls, or randoms. Yes, service writers are the devil to most techs. Just like techs are the devil to most service advisors. It's rarely a 100% kosher environment. I slam big hours in little time, and I don't cut corners. My customers love me, my advisor is a lazy prick. Learn to work with it. Show them up, don't piss then off. There's reasons why other shops give me offers all the time to work for them. There's reasons why other shops bring THEIR CUSTOMERS vehicles to me to fix. We're not a cheap shop. Either find a shop you're happy in, or change your attitude. You'll never find "the perfect place". Is just like life, give and take....
