Any other lube techs on flate rate as well? Is it possible to make decent money as a flag/flat rate lube tech at a dealership? I’ve only been a couple weeks out of training and this pay period I’m probably only gonna flag 35-40hrs but push 90hrs total on clock hours. Obviously I don’t get paid for my on clock hours only whatever I flag. My dealership does offer bonuses and pay incentives when customers accept any recommendations. I basically get a small percentage. My last check it gave me about $180-$200 extra and I didn’t flag a full 80hrs that week either. Everyone at the dealership is telling me it’s just super slow right now and to hang in there because it will pick back up. I know that work speed is a huge factor when on flat rate which I’m getting faster everyday and already faster than a few other techs who’ve been here for years. It’s been really discouraging though to see how many physical hours I’m clocked in at the dealership compared to what I’m actually getting paid for, i realize this is all just part of the business but what would yall suggest? Should I just look for another job? Or is there other lube techs on flat rate that actually make decent money? Any advice would be much appreciated and thanks in advance!
