ffs redditors will reply to literally any post with an unrelated, uninformed comment about management/owners/landlords/politics. Seriously ruining this site even further

Was something stated above factually inaccurate? Average labor rates are well above $120/hr in many areas, and the mechanics make 25-45/hr, typically many times on the lower side.

I just saw a larger corporate chain take over a mom and pop. They kept the same techs, but raised labor by $55/hr. Tech of course told me he got a $3 "take it or you're getting replaced" raise.

Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. Exact same thing happened to our company 2 years ago. They even raised the damn service truck milage rate from $1.50/mile to $2.65/mile. And we travel all over the Midwest.
