id rather work 40 hours of salary, get PAID for 40 hours, than work 60 to bust ass for a 40hr workweek with 25 hours of flatrate work

8-5 or 6 depending on if I have something I can finish by 6, 1 hour lunch, no weekends, no holidays, each tech has 2 bays, and we're booked for about a week in advance. I ------- love it.

Flat rate sucks especially at a dealership that gets a ton of warranty work. One of the reason's I'm gonna try and leave this profession.

i worked on saturday.... little over 8 hours. did lots of sitting around. some throwing parts over counter... the lead tech forsure made over 20hours in the same 8 hours i was there... and i think the rest of them made around the same... but then again, they where working hard, i was listening to my music, on the internet, and billing out parts occasionally...

ima tell you what man...if you can, get on with a govt contract company! im absolutely loving working down here. im used to busting ass goin out turn and burn for 8 hrs a day, always in a hurry. now ive always worked hourly never flat rate but this is a whole different world. my normal working pace would get a weeks worth of work done in about 2 days here between ------- off and waiting on parts and bull shittin with the bossman, its awesome. im moving to a new shop to start a new mission and hopefully headed for 72 hr weeks at time and a half...cant wait...

theyre actually hireing i believe if anyones looking for a job...

My dad works for a gov't contractor and actually bitches because he gets paid so much and does so little. It pisses him off that all these years he busted his ass for the money he got, and now he's getting more for sitting around.

I work for a gov't contractor too and get paid decent. I bust my ass some days, but others I barely do anything. I worked 8 hours of overtime Saturday. Maybe worked 30 minutes total?
