I’ve been working at a Toyota dealer for a year now and the job isn’t bad and the pay is great for a 1st year tech. At our shop theres either A techs or lube techs. It doesn’t matter what comes through at my shop, if you get that ticket you’re expected to know how to fix it or you’re out the door. I have all 8 of the regular ASE’s but like carnut said people respect your knowledge but pay is still shit for the most part. I’m leaving this field in 2 weeks for a job in commercial realestate. Being a tech isn’t horrible but look forward to bad knees, bad back, and mental stress from some cars that will just kick your ass.
