[quote=Anonymous]I know two mechanics personally. One works for a BMW dealership in NoVa and makes about $120K/year. He does have to supply his own tools, which cost almost $100K. But he makes a good living. He probably works 45 hours/week. It is hard, physical work though. As he nears 45, he is definitely beginning to feel it daily. The other one makes about $65K/year. He works at a small, more general mom & pop shop further out in VA. His hours are capped at 40/week and he takes no work home with him. He and his wife own a small house and have two kids. A decent life but not opulent. He also suffers physically from the labor.[/quote]
