There is a vast difference between fitters, mechanics and technicians.
Fitters fit things, neither know or care why it went wrong, just make it fit and make it work
Mechanics repair stuff, understand how it works and can explain what you did to break it
Technicians can make design changes but need an engineer to check its still in design parameters
I still consider myself a mechanic but I'm probably half way to being a designer tech (only without the training
)
new generation wants a title that sounds 'better'
Hey, I was a 'Site Service Engineer' once
They are probably not even up to fitter skill level at MOST tyre shops, something to remember when you get a brake job and tyre rotation
Florida is a right to work state, workers have very little rights here, even if the job kills them (max payout $100,000, you cant sue your employer)
