I was an auto mechanic before I went into management.

I really liked it, but it is hard work.

If you love tools and cars, it can be great.

The best thing is if you really become as skilled as you can and get every certification you can.

It is hard on your hands and your back (your always leaning over). If you work hard and then become a Service Manager or something, then you can share your knowledge with your crew, instead of having to work so hard all of your life.

It is a life of hard work, but the rewards can be great if you really love tools and cars.

Good luck.
