Ok here is my story, I took automotive technology in high school for three years. Graduated then took a 2 year course at a local community college, where i got my Associate degree in automotive technology (Toyota T-Ten) program. I got a job at a toyota dealer, when i started there was a kid that i graduated with already working there for a year! He didn't go to college, just got hired off the street. As each year went by i started loosing interest in the job. Cars ALL day, when i get home everyone wants me to work on there car.. didn't feel like working on my car! I worked there for 8 years. Flat rate pay sucks, checks are unpredictable. You never know what your next check is going to look like. if the work isn't there your check will reflect that. When you try to upsell work the customer denies it. I quit this past summer, and now i work for the railroad (repairing trains, welder/fabricator) My hourly salary DOUBLED. I couldn't be more happier. Do what YOU feel though
