I get 3 weeks of paid vacation every year, soon I'll get 6 weeks of vacation each year. They also paid for all my ASE tests, I am the lead tech in my shop and also ASE master certified with L1.

Fuck get me a job there! I make good money but for a horse shit company.
Back on topic. This is really a horse shit industry to get into right now. 95 percent of the shops out there just try and screw the techs over. If there is anything else you want to do for a living go into that and keep cars a hobby. I hate working on my own stuff now.
But if you're really serious about doing this for a career don't buy crapsman. It really doesn't hold up to the daily abuse you will put it through then when it does break you have to track down a seas to go get it warrantied. I look at it this way buy as much from snap on and matco as you can while you get your discount. It will save you lots on tools in the long run.
