What's everyone's thoughts on wee jimmy down the street?
That fella everyone knows who has no mechanicing qualifications but takes on jobs and lets on he's a mechanic.
Would you trust your car with this man?
I don't mind people doing it,I'm a mechanic myself though so I know there is no way these people know half the stuff you learn day to day in the garage or when your at college. But I definitely wouldn't be paying him to carry out work and definitely not at the rate they all seem to charge which is similar to that of a qualified garage lol.
It doesn't bother me,but my boss goes nuts about it as they're effectively standing on his toes and taking potential customers without having a qualification under their belt!
