RE: Female Service Managers?
Oh wow, this is gonna get ugly fast I'm thinkin'.
Just remember, it's 2007 not 1807...women are allowed out of the kitchen once in a while
For a serious answer, no, none of the HD shops I go to have female service managers. If they did it wouldn't bother me in a the least as long as she knew the product/parts sufficient to do her job. Then again I require that of the male service managers, knowledge of product/parts. If they don't know I don't come back, fairly simple math.
Wolf, somebody needs to hide Kirby's chair<g>

One of the shops here in town has an Asst. Service Manager who is female. She's not only cute (sexist remark I know; my apologies ladies), but she knows her stuff and is as deserved as any man to be in that position.
Provided they are capable and know their stuff, I have no problems whatsoever with female service managers. Hell, based on the male service managers I've encountered, they sure as hell couldn't be any worse!

Also dont see a place for them in repair shops like Sears and such. Or in the underwear section of a dept store!

Personally, I would love to see women in the underwear section. (Been reading too many Penthouse Forums I guess....)

I don't have one at the local HD shop, but I could care less. Like someone previously posted, my only requirement for SM (or any other profession)is they know what they hell they're talking about. I know a gal who was a better wrench on outboard motors thana lot of the men. I grade on competence, not on the sex of the person in the job.

RE: Female Service Managers?
I never use any service departments, but a couple of the dealers I go to do have females behind the parts counters and they have been very helpfull and knowledgable when I have questions. I know many folks that have had their bikes serviced poorlyby men. I don't think being male automatically makes someone a better service manager.
