    It’s difficult keeping mechanics. I trained them on a job give them instructions even with instructions can’t get it right. I feel this guy. An experience tech is already your next door competitor.

    There is a huge shortage of mechanics and smart shops pay their techs well to prevent turnover. The shops that pay poorly are always contending with turnover which effects their bottom line.

    There a huge shortage in mechanics. Here the problem summed up in three words. PAY PAY PAY! Problem is most shops don’t want to pay: These vehicles now days are complicated computer based machines and shop owners expect to hire a mechanic that has a hundred grand in tools. LOL good luck on that one!

    I can go on all day about this but bottom line if you want quality technicians you must be willing to pay for them. Any tech that is really good knows they can make 100k at a dealership so you need to give them a reason to work for you..

    You have to train and mentor. Employers expect too much from new guys and don’t want to pay enough for guys who are already experienced. On the job experience only comes from one place, employers. Employers are decimating their own labor pools by not training and mentoring the next generation of labor.

      Employers are not required to train their employees, that’s just part of the business.

      No shops close of mismanagement and poor customer service. If someone wants to be a mechanic why depend on a shop owner to train you? Go figure it out. Want to be Heart surgeons don’t walk into operating rooms and ask other doctors to train them to work on hearts??? I’m just playing devils advocate, yes you need to learn and some shop owners will teach you but you should have some mechanical experience under your belt. Be that fixing your bike as a kid or changing your own oil.

    I loved your take on hiring. I’ve gone through all the same things. Personally UTI/MMI has never worked out for me either but I’ve kept trying them as motorcycle mechanics are hard to find. I 100% agree with your assessment of being a nice person. I work closely with my techs and I’m hands on so usually I’m wrenching right along side them on the next lift and I have had to let several people go because I couldn’t stand their attitude, even though they were a good tech. They bring that bad vibe/aura to the shop and I can’t do it. I’m actually looking now so I’m gonna try hiring based off your hiring model.

    I make 15 bucks an hour at a dim, gloomy dark shop in Alaska.
    But my skills are more like $28/hour. So yeah it sucks ass when you get paid on Friday and pick up your $583 weekly paycheck. Might as well be mopping floors instead of replacing the oil pump in this 2014 Duramax.

    Great video! im in the position of walking into a shop and saying give me a job, I have no book experience but I changed out my own clutch, fuel injectors, and even done a head gasket with my service cart full of quality hand and specialty tools ready to go already. I'm ready for something new that I can do the rest of my life with enjoyment, I bought my tools with the idea that id go into the auto or truck industry soon in life. I also been thinking about going to school district's and applying at the bus barns, just been doing researching and getting myself ready mentally for the switch.

    Sometimes ur best mechanics arnt nice ppl cause they don’t like to be bothered and like to work alone. Some just are assholes at work and nice outside of work. I’d say it’s a lot to do with what’s going on in their life and if they enjoy being at work doing the job or just doing it for the money til they find the next employer
