    Never a technician
    Me too, I hate the title tech, techs to me are the school boys that think they know everything.

    I think everybody is a "technician" for the first couple of years. Then eventually your boss stops coming to your rescue and you have to figure it out yourself. The problem is I know guys in the field for 20 something years that are still "technicians". Some people just never grow up....

    I don't care about a title. I just fix shit. But my official title is 'service specialist'.

    I prefer the title "Mechanical Exorcist"...

    So because i'm a young mechanic I don't know shit? Good to know.

    As far a the "tech" vs "mechanic" deal, who gives a shit? Call me whatever you want. All i wanna do is show up, fix your shit, and go home. I could care less about my title.

    When it came time to set the timing the book said that they would need a timing light, they looked at me and said I was not going to drive home to get it so I used a broken tour signal from a parts pile and made them Buzz Box, works like one anyway.
