Perhaps there is a mismatch between your perceived ability and how they perceive your ability?
I'm not going to deny, that's the problem for sure.
They seems to think I'm a dribbling spastic when in reaility they can give me an engine to rip out on Monday and I WILL do it. It might take a while, but I'll do it and I'll be confident about doing it. What they seem to forget is that the techs have apprentices whacking out services on the side for them since their first year with the company. No tech with a boy changes oil, or does spark plugs, nothing. I'm a bit different because I've always been paired with 'specialist' guys (The classic expert, the electrical expert and the 'big job' expert) but I still do an oil, filter and service check without someone needing to hold my hand.
When we we're given our first services all alone one guy completely fell apart when it came to an electrical fault. I'd have been at home with that **** all day long. In the end I ended up doing my pads and discs and holding his hand through the whole diag process, because I'm a nice guy like that.
Again, not bragging, just pointing out that I can do a service check, oil and filter without the car catching fire
