The young guys do the shot - gun approach to fix cars , throw as many parts at it as possible until it runs right .

we pay a tad less down here
27 was the most I paid in CA, that individual was $2 higher than anyone else I had and was absolutely NOT worth it! Guy was a tool...
30 was the highest at any shop I worked at after my service director gig dried up.
Here in Vegas mid 20's is where the guys are at...

 

[2FORCEFULL]

we pay 40 at our shop....split labor 50-50

I guess lots of factors come into play?most of all cost of living, Vancouver is a expensive area to buy a house, 500k is not much around here which sucks, i would be better off making 25 hr and be able to get a house for 200k i think...

 

[parkerpowersports]

id gladly pay a good tech 20-25 an hr if he was good

 

[RVR SWPR]

Not sure who you would talk to,try to contact Veterans coming back from the wars.Those guys kept stuff running in those shitholes and now need a good job.

Good luck with that, a lot of contractors up here pay their good service guys foreman wages to keep them around. Or used to before the shitty economy took over. I imagine they have weeded them out now and just pay scale:thumbsup
