In this episode, I break down what really happens when a motivated tech walks into a dealership and gets thrown into the bay with no support, no communication, and nothing but lies from the interview. From foremen being left out of the process to shops expecting techs to train their own replacements for free, it’s no wonder guys walk out as fast as they walk in.We’ll talk about the lies, the egos, the NPC new hires, and why the system keeps eating its own. And yeah I’ll have some fun calling out the “top 1%” techs and the podcast clout-chasers too.This one’s for every tech who’s seen a new guy show up, sit at a toolbox all day, and disappear a week later.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.
