Curtis Gardner is an Audi Master Guild technician. Today he joins Jeff to talk about his perspective on flat-rate pay, emphasizing both its financial upsides and its negative impact on technician mental health and work-life balance. They also share stories of the challenges and drawbacks of dealer politics, as well as the undervaluing of skilled problem-solvers—known as the "Jims" of the shop—who often keep shops running but aren’t compensated accordingly.
