IL TECNICO STREGONI - Technician Jobs in Tulsa, OK

Our shop is heated and air conditioned. Sometimes it is hard to overcome the humidity but we can keep it a good 20-30 degrees cooler in the summer with a good air flow.

We are not a large shop. The ultimate size here would be 3 mechanics, 2 apprentices, and 2 parts people.

We are family owned so we are here from 7 am to 4 pm Monday thru Friday. There are some rare exceptions where we are here later and on a Saturday. Those are when we have a customer coming in from out of town or out of country.

We have just about every tool needed in our shop. The mechanics have their own tools and for specialty tools we have them available for everyone.

We are not real big on break room. Our building is too small. We do have an ice box and a micro wave. We also are getting real modern with a restroom instead of an out house. There is no smoking of any kind in the shop so the guys smoke on the side of the building.

We have 5 individual bays with a good size common area.

We only take in about 6-10 cars a month. We do not like them sitting around because of their expense.

The owner with 50 years experience gets the parts in.

If it is a car type that we would work on in the shop there is no side work. The only side work the guys do is on American and Japanese cars.

We have fun or we do not do it.

We believe that when you stop learning you are getting buried. We have training going on everyday. We like to show all the younger guys everything we do so they can pick up knowledge to earn them more money down the road.

If you pay attention to what the older guys are showing you, your career is growing and will continue to grow.

Because we are small in size everything is constantly under review. Everyone watches everyone so mistakes are not made. These cars are to expensive to make a mistake on.

We show you how not to hurt yourself or the cars.

I hate the word Tech. We are mechanics. If we cannot buy it we make it. We do not just change parts or components. First we see if they can be fixed. The older guys first show how it is done and the next time you show us how it is done

We do not. We do not even tell people what cars or tools are in the shop

No we do not right now

Cruising along having fun. Running a successful business for years to come
