RE: Heed my warning.
I do agree, drinking while working on a customers car is a bad idea. I know some of the other guys pop back a few drinks while working on things. I always felt that if they're going to drink, they can be the ones to fix their mistakes, not me. I don't drink, though so that isn't a problem for me.
As for my reasons, the hours are long. I haven't left the shop before midnight in at least a week. 14 hour days are killing me, and I'm on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Working on my own car has become alot less fun, since I spend all day working on other people's cars. I used to really enjoy working on it, but it's been on jackstands waiting and I just haven't felt like messing with it. I'm just letting the younger, more impressionable members, know that working in a shop isn't like they portray it on TV. Except for the arguing. And now, back to my headache and work.

Only if you drink in excess. I usually have a few beers when working on my car, and all my work has turned out perfect.

Now, on topic, drinking while working on a customer's car is just f**king dumb.

Funny, my cultural geography professor was telling my class last week how Mercedes was considering removing the beer vending machine from the employee lounge and a strike nearly happened. The vending machine stayed!
