I just had my A Tech quit on me. I was thrilled because I finally found an opportunity to promote my B-Tech and hire another mechanic. I found that in the process i lowered my payroll by 2% of sales. The truth is that we often pay technicians way too much because we think they are the key to our success. I am finding out that a mechanic's are not motivated by money. Money just makes them lazy and un-happy at work.
