Flat rate pay systems in auto repair shops create unfair work distribution where dispatchers favor certain technicians with profitable jobs while others get less desirable work.

Traditional flat rate systems lack transparency and fairness in job assignment, leading to technician dissatisfaction and potential turnover.
