How adept are you, mechanically?

Good one. 95% consider themseves above 50%. Love to see the math behind that. You are on dangerous ground talking about men and women drivers my friend. LOL.

Thses type of surveys that ask you to evaluate yourself at anything are always fun when the results come in

Don’t really think it is important on how you evaluate yourself, but how other people evaluate you. When your8n business I feel this is more important.

Back in 2009 the company reassessed the technician pay scale and all of a sudden i was over the max. My reward for 30 years of excellent reviews. We had to do self evaluation every year before our merit review. Mine said "walks on water and God asks me questions." Manager said that was not acceptable. I said what are you going to do? Not give a raise? Manager changed it to some corporate babble. I got a glowing review and a pat on the back.

My favorite is 'The Far Side' comic of a classroom where the teacher is pointing to a drawing of a screw driver and screw on the board. The title is "class for the mechanically DEclined".

Well I can honestly say that on a "scale" of 1 to 10 I'm 185 lbs.

Somewhere between 1 and 10

Probably a 3. I do some carb work and other minor things, especially electrical.

I think I'm a 1 sometimes. Other times I'm patting myself on the back.
