Labour rates are a joke, i was paying £150 plus vat pr hour for the wifes car, now its out of the official warranty i use the specialist that i got mine serviced at, my other car is leased through my business so has to go main dealer. Then you pay for an hour even though the job take only 20 minutes but if it take 62 minutes it 2 hours. I do know that as long as the work completed is to a standard manufacturers can no long insist on it being done at a main dealer.

Yep that is correct veg mate as long as manufacturer parts are used you can get it done anywhere without invalidating the warranty, there's allot of presumptions about I have to take it tothe dealers bullspoo, the only thing with the dealer is they stamp the service book with the brand stamp,,, and folk think oh its all OK,, ha ha fools paying as you say two hrs plus for a twenty min job,,, but the nail in the coffin forme was one off the valleters tested pos for covid didn't say anything and came into work,,!!! A time later he let slip such but he'd been tested again and was clear,, this guy was ill,, in and out of work for days,, now the boss let this slip other day but didn't say he knew as couldn't afford to close the place,!!!!, that's a fukin liberty, I got tested yesterday to be sure and result came in an hr ago I'm clear, but I mean f**kin really,,, no loyalty to the place may be mentioned to the right people

I have worked for places were i have hated every day . owned by people that treat you like crap talk to like crap and have no appreciation for hard work. That is a horrible situation to be in. I have fortunately never been in that position but have seen areas change when someone has managed to get a promotion one way or another (you can imagine the ways), who is not good at managing and then they interview and take on similar types. It then just becomes a close knit set until eventually they move on the same way they did to get the first job. Best wishes st66 and hopefully you will find something and later say it is the best thing I did.👍
