Celebrating our newly Certified Master technicians!
View full postBased on a WrenchWay poll, the majority of technicians would rather work a 4-day, 10-hour work week versus the traditional 5-day, 8-hour work week. In our latest WrenchWay Buzz, we discuss how shops that adapt to this new schedule could open up their capacity and increase their productivity.
View full postWhether it is a WFH or in person type role, I believe that 4-10's reign supreme over the traditional 5 8's. To put myself mentally back into the environment of having to drive to the shop and be there in person to wrench, most of my 5 8's ultimately did turn into 10 hour days, where I was simply waiting for the traffic to die down before heading home for the evening. Once you're in the zone and working, the additional two hours can come and go without even knowing it. Allowing the flexibility of the third day off allows more time to recharge which is an added bonus.

To answer this question, we asked a couple of our younger technicians in the shop, Daniel and Josh. They think getting involved earlier could be beneficial - making sure kids know that obtaining a college degree isn’t for everyone and that there are other options out there! We need to change the perception of society (and some educators) on a technician’s career. We should normalize going into the trades and be honest … you do NOT need a college degree to make a good living. Kids should know the advantages to a trade career, especially as technicians!

It's really important to show kids what it's actually like being in the back of the shops and the potential that stands within the automotive industry. There's a lot of troubleshooting and critical thinking involved in being an automotive technician—a good one, at least—that they don't teach you in school. Not every issue you face will be black-and-white, so it's important for young technicians to get that hands-on experience.
