I loved working at shops. I liked it even better when i managed the last one i worked at. Although some of the shops i worked at had crappy health benefits.

You will find after a while working there, working on your own car will be a chore. I was so burny out that I would not even change my own oil. I only got the urge to work on my projects again after I stopped working in a shop. Shop life SUCKS!

 

[95BlkCobra]

well i hope that i never get that way ill just have somebody slap me

+1 worked in a shop for many years and still do a lot of side work, it can be tiring to work on my own stuff. the only time I did like working on it was when I could find a way to work on it during otherwise business hours. didn't happen often. never happened after I went flat rate. if there is no work, I go home.

 

[uncltrvlnmatt]

well i hope that i never get that way ill just have somebody slap me

I took about 5-6 years before burn out really kicked in. It feels like you have never left work and you are bringing it home with you.

Good luck, it does not happen to everyone.
