Carolyn Taylor Manager Sarasota, Florida - The inside of a service station: it's full of grease, dirt, noise. It's the last place you would consider lady-like. “Even though I have nail polish on I do not mind getting my hands dirty whatsoever." said Assistant Manager Vicki Gore. For Vicki Gore and Carolyn Taylor: job is a job. And managing this Sarasota Jiffy Lube is a job that they love. "I do everything that is necessary and called for on a vehicle. Transmission exchanges fuel injection services change out serpentine drive belts." Taylor said. The women admit, even with a few years experience under their tool belt, they still get double-takes from first time customers. "They're amazed that women are in this kind of work force but once we do their car one time and they see how professional we are they love it." Gore said. Female customers like Celia Cooper have a little more confidence in the car care, with the women running the show. "I didn’t come for that reason but I thought isn’t that cool!" said Cooper. At this service center on US 41, there are four female employees. And of the nine in the local franchise, three of them are run by women. "I don’t have any brothers so my dad had to pick one of the girls to help him out, that’s where I began." Taylor said. But at the end of the day, these jiffy lube ladies don't consider themselves any different than their male counterparts. "When you're good at something you stick with it." said Taylor. The women are getting so much attention these days, they were featured on the cover of a trade magazine and they say they even got a call from the Lifetime Network for Women.
