The age-old debate: Do you refer to yourself as a technician or mechanic? In a recent poll, 46% of our audience said “technician” while another 41% said it doesn’t matter.
Technician
Mechanic, technician, grease monkey, parts slinger, wrench, goober, whatever, I literally do not care. I actually think that's a very big problem because I am highly skilled at what I do thanks to an expert teacher. In the military, my verse was Psalm 144:1, "Blessed be the Lord my rock who teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight." When I left the military, I prayed, "Father, my business is no longer war, but if you can teach my hands to war, can you also teach them to wrench?" He sends me just enough that I struggle with to keep me humble, but we fix a lot of cars, so when I say I am highly skilled, that's not me bragging. As a highly skilled person, I should be concerned with the terms used to address members of this trade. However, I'm not because at least here in the United States, any person with a quick mouth and a few tools can call themselves a mechanic or "technician" and get a job, screw everything up for everyone and not get fired because, "He sells lots of parts and turns lots of hours and we need him." Not everyone can be highly skilled, but everyone could be ethical and they are not, which gives the industry a bad name. So, when someone asks me, I tell them, "I am a wrench." "Well, what do you do?" "I fix cars."
