Pros

Being a manager you have some flexabilty in your scheduale, if in a busy location you can make some decent money.

Cons

Corporate expectations are not based on real world circumstances. We are not suppose to say no to a customer when they request service, but if all the techs are busying and you have people waiting as well as appointments comming in, how is it possible to say to some one walking in sure we can help you??? You are expected to pull the car in and have customer take a seat. After a while that customer is going to say hey why did you pull my car in if no one is going to work on it?/ I have been here 45 minutes and no one has gotten near it yet?? It only causes issues and generates complaints.
