Comparing ourselves mechanics and mechatronics on a daily basis, a rather clear (and discouraging) picture emerges of the daily life of a car repairer: stress, endless hours, customers who demand everything immediately, diagnoses over the phone and absurd requests.
But what can be done to improve the situation?

The Problem: A Profession Growing More Complex

In the past, cars were mechanical; today, they are computers on wheels. But while technology advances, the mindset of many clients has remained stuck in the ‘80s. Many still believe that a problem can be solved in a minute, maybe with a quick glance and a seasoned remark. Even worse, there are those who become self-proclaimed experts after watching a YouTube video and expect to dictate the diagnosis to the mechanic.

The Difficult Client: Wants Everything, Right Now, and for Free

Many professionals complain that clients demand detailed quotes over the phone, free diagnostics, and courtesy cars without paying a dime. When it's time to pay 30 euros for a professional diagnosis, however, they look shocked.

The issue worsens when we add those who call at all hours, as if the shop were an emergency service. And as the phone rings non-stop, work piles up, and the time to manage everything grows shorter.
