The idea the mechanic could get 6% 401k and not the rest of the company is laughable. It would be bt far the biggest expense the company would have. Never going to happen. As far as tool allowance at one time era offered 250$ a tear for tools. While this would be nice it doesn't really matter. I'm not sure about the evals are you asking for evaluation or saying we shouldn't have evaluation either way I doubt that matters much anyway.
