Does anybody out there work on flat rate? I've had several people from the automotive world tell me we should go to flat rate but I don't think that it would work in our industry.
We don't do a lot of constant repetitive tasks because we don't have the numbers that they do in automotive. Dpending on what type of environment the truck is operated in the same job could take a lot longer to accomplish.
If the possitives outweigh the negatives though, I think that it could be a good thing for techs and owners.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
