fuck flat rate...
 

I love my new job. salary is the ----, especially when you stand around doing NOTHING for 2 hrs while you wait for a ------- torque converter seal. :)

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

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

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

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.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

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.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

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...

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

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?

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

I ------- LOVE FLAT RATE

Now if your a useless bitch who doesn't like to work its not for you. (no darkelvis I'm not calling you useless)

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

no...I'm pretty much useless

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

me to :(

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

I work flat-rate with a 40 hour guarantee. That means I get paid at least 40 hours a week regardless if I lift a finger or not. If I turn 55 hours I get 55 plus an extra dollar an hour bonus. It kicks ass. Porsche for the win. :6

Sorry not trying to rub it in flat-rate guys.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

oh trust me i do my fair share of bitching about it...i think thats a lot of whats wrong with our economy. im used to fix it RIGHT for as little money as possible, aka if it can be rebuilt...rebuild it dont get a whole new one. i see more brand new ---- get thrown away...left outside rustin like hell...its stupid. hopefuly im going civil service soon so ill be makin even more money do even less work

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

anyone else wonder what the ---- is wrong with highroller


Why the ---- does he have a blue civic?

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

I liked it when we actually had work coming in the door, I had a killer week going and then we got hit by an ice storm so instead of a 45 to 50hr week I got 30 hrs. Today we were stupid slow(still feeling effects from ice storm) and I may have gotten 4 hrs tops. Its great if your shop can stay busy and you don't have to deal with bs warranty claims all the time. I'm just sick of getting paid 4hrs by ford for a job that under customer pay would pay 8 plus hours. Ford pays 7 hrs to r+r a trans on an awd cvt trans in a five hundred or freestyle. Now if that was customer pay it'd be a 12 to 14 hour job. I know everyone at a dealership has to deal with warranty but its not for me anymore.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

Flate rate is the ----. Dealership I work at is usually busy all the time. Plus we get bonuses either 1.00 or 2.00 an hour for entire month for 230 and 260 hours a month.

Warranty times do suck balls for the most part. Some warranty work is easy money. 98-01 accord trans pay 5-6 hours, knock them out in an hour and there's always an odyessy trans to do. Plus all the other little bullshit you do them so many times ---- becomes routine and mundane.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

^^^ honda techs are the bitches of the techs. You guys dont know what real work is, go to ford, chevy or dodge. Untill then shut the ---- up when men are talking.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

It really puts government waste into perspective. My dad busts his ass when there's work available, but he talks about having to wait 1-2 weeks for a repair to be approved, and they just sit around most the time.

I think it's ironic that the government measures put in place to reduce money being wasted actually causes it.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

+1

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

Let's see should I bust my ass working on domestic ----? Or coast through the day knocking back services, tbelts and occassional warranty work for Honda.

You can call me us bitches all you want but we get paper.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

dealership techs are the bitches of the techs. Work on 5+ yr old ---- with rusty seized up bolts all day. :)

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

working for kia used to suck flat rate becuase it was all warranty and every thing that came through the shop was paying .2-.3hrs so you littlerally had to fix 10 cars just to get 3hrs. and then those cheap fucks would never take care of their ----. i used to bank on pre delivery inspections though most kias got 1hr for those it took me 15 minutes of doing nothing

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

You're the bitch for working on cars that need repairs.

Re: fuck flat rate...

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

You should play for a living.

I haven't done anything real for the last week until today, and now I think I worked for all of two hours. Next month's bills are already paid (or in the bank, anyway), and I don't give a ----. It's great.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

Play?

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

Yeah, play.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

not a option, but is 100% what is needed. money isn't really a/the problem.

Re: fuck flat rate...

I played in the snow all last night, a bunch of us just parked in the road and started sledding down the middle of it. I now plan on going to bed + accomplishing absolutely nothing of importance with my day, but I will most likely wake up by 3pm and find someone who will give me a few hundred dollars for minimal effort.

Re: fuck flat rate...
 

Flat rate is a lifestyle, if its doing the old lady or mowing the grass, I always do it in half the time.

On a serious note, since the economy has gone completely into the shitter, our kia customers are not spending a god damn dime. Plus when they dont even show up for their appointment that really pisses me off. I can't even schwano a god damn rear main seal. Last week I made a blazing 25.6 hours, I was top man too. I think in 09 I'm going to set some new personal lows.
