Been there...I went into service management at a dealership. Car sales was also very rewarding- depending on your body repair knowledge. An insurance adjuster position will pay off greatly for you.

Mechanic skills are just that. Seems you would need to be in the field to use the benefits. What you really gain over years is experience which enhances your skills. What you might consider is working up to a service writer or manager. They use their experience for evaluations.

I got tired of it too. I was a really good mechanic back in the day (early to late 80's) even earned my apprenticeship and certification in Rolls Royce/Bentley repair, but I just finally got fed up with never being able to get completely clean, all my food tasting like some sort of oil, cleaner or something along those lines. I eventually went on to being a service adviser instead but eventually I just got tired of autos all together and pursued other things. I eventually opened up my own Insurance agencies. Ironic really because it still had to do with cars! Go figure?
