And then imagine all the effort a mechanic has to do to become a 'good mechanic', not just qualified that takes 3 years , i left school at 15 , started work at 16 , as a apprentice , im now 23 and still learning !
You never stop learning in our job , to be a very competent mechanic takes at least 3-6 years imo , on s**te wages to start with !
And that goes without all the hassle that comes with the jobs and the fact that peoples lives are in your hands daily !
IMO a good mechanic is worth his weight in gold , someone who doesn't rip people off is honest and hard working , like most of the traders on here and me personally , we work very hard to gives ourselves a good name , because without it , in this trade your buggered !
£10 an hour doesn't really cover it nower days when bread is £1.50 odd a loaf and more importantly Fredos are 20p
And to think i can go stack shelves at my local aldi at night for £9.50 and i need no training FFS!
Not really a rant at you chaz but more a rant in general
