Message	I've worked at 2 different large chain shops over the years, for years at each, and I have never once worked with another tech that would do anything to "trick" anyone or anything. Yes, we would all work quickly, but when you do 15+ alignments a day, you learn how to quickly do them to spec, even custom specs (which we were known for at the one shop). IF a car left the shop with a problem after an alignment it was because of an honest mistake, and we would correct it without issue, given the chance (i.e the customer noticed and came back). Believe it or not, there are honest people working at "shady" shops.
