On this week’s episode of GTW, we are talking about one of the internet’s favorite punching bags: The Millennials. Now the first question that always comes up when it comes to Millennials and our industry is, “how come there aren’t many millennial mechanics?” Well turns out, that’s on us. When they ask what it’s like to be a mechanic, we tell them about it warts and all and that sent them running for the hills. However, there are still some millennials that have gone into the automotive field, and these people are going to end up making bank as the supply of mechanics eventually dwindles to near nothing. So, in a roundabout way, we are saying that they are a fairly intelligent group of people, unfortunately for them, you still can’t buy experience. When you’re the only Millennial in town who can fix people’s cars, you get to charge whatever you want.
