VIDEO EPISODE. You’ve probably seen that Lizard Ford guy online the one always talking about the factory side of things. Strikes, contracts, solidarity… all that. The truth is, he only talks about that side because that side actually fights back. The union guys on the line have structure, leverage, and a voice. Meanwhile, the dealership techs the flat rate soldiers are the ones holding the brand together with no backup, no representation, and no respect.This episode breaks down exactly why dealership mechanics/ technicians don’t have a voice, how the flat rate system keeps us divided, and what “fighting back” really looks like inside a dealership. It’s not about picket signs it’s about finally saying no to the free labor, the unpaid diagnostics, and the silence that’s been eating this trade alive.Because the truth is, they’ll listen when we stop saying yes. Support the showSPONSORED BY BAY DIAGNOSTICSwww.BayDiagnosticsGroup.com You've heard the problems on this podcast for years — technician turnover, broken communication, bad dispatch, lost productivity, pay-plan issues, and shop culture problems.Bay Diagnostics helps dealership managers find out what's actually happening inside their service department.Built from more than 30 years of firsthand dealership experience, Bay Diagnostics provides anonymous technician feedback, workflow analysis, and diagnostic reports designed to identify the problems that can cost a shop technicians, hours, repair orders, and profit.Truth from the bays.
