Can this case actually stand up in court? When a mechanic is hired, they agree to the flat rate so isn't this like anyone else sueing thier employer for too low of a salary. My friend went from hourly to flat rate and he loves it. He does have good weeks and bad weeks, but for the most part he thinks it's pretty fair.

Flat rate works out better for him unless a manifold bolt breaks off in the head or something (happened last week). Also the jobs kinda balance out, you get underpaid for intakes and overpaid for brakes. I'm not sure about the warrenty work but he was saying that there is a recall right now that pays 1.5 hours for 20 minutes of work.
