Could the grass be greener on the other side?
Are you an Apprentice Automotive Technician looking at the other side and wondering? Perhaps you're working at a large dealership and tired of dealing with same cars day in and day out. Maybe you're tired of working in a giant auto group, that's lost the personal touch. Maybe you're working at a chain or independent shop that lacks proper tools and equipment; or in a dark, dingy and cold environment in winter. Maybe the clientele doesn't care to have their vehicle properly serviced and it frustrates you? Maybe the boss or management just simply doesn't care about you: you're just a number, or worse someone to take their frustrations out on.
