You guys have just told the story of how I became a mechanic when I was a teenager. Too many ham handed incompetent scobes that charged plenty and did a lousy job of repairing anything at best.
I found out early that if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself. I remember working in a few shops where the "flat rate artists" would short cut every job to beat the book time. Then they would brag about turning 70 hours in a week. By stealing it from customers by doing slipshod poor quality work.
Some thing I commonly saw were leaving out fasteners that were difficult to reach, failure to properly locate wiring harnesses and fuel lines, and even leaving parts out entirely. Some got away with it, others did not. Personally, I refused to work that way. That was why I chose to do the work that the flat rate artists turned up their noses at - automatic transmissions. No room for compromise there.
It will be a cold day in hades before I let one of those ham-handed idiots touch my car!
