Quick lube places?

I have used quicky mart oil changes when working out of town with the company truck

None were ever more then one time no major problems.

I always gave them the company phone # to ask about any up sell options.

The only down side is not being under the truck yourself to notice any other issues

 

at 18 i was approached by a friend of a friend who owned a quick lube place, we talked a bit asked if i was looking for a new job. I was the store lead about 6 months in, store assistant manager at 19, because the General Manager of the company worked out of my shop, so why do you need the GM and a location manager. went on to work for Honda as a line technician. later in life i stopped by to chat with a friend who worked for subaru, that stores GM wanted to get an express lube set up to keep the oil changes out of the shop. and my friend mentioned that i worked at one a long time back and had even been one of the training managers when new stores opened. that manager and i swapped phone numbers chatted over the phone a couple times then asked if id come show him what would work in their location and what was needed. he asked me later if i wanted to become the Express Manager for the lube techs, got that up and running and pushing cars out. he later asked me to be a tech there too. i say all this to say that being a lube tech at 18 was what got me into being a shop tech and working as a tech.

also showed me there are people who shouldn't also be allowed to touch cars either

 

Life's choices are great like that.

I have screwed up often, and that is okay since I know who to blame.


You're right that the successes do not get posted, but I have been witness to the failures on a few occasions.
