Stable income: Somewhat stable

I’d rate it a 3 out of 5 because while there is potential for a decent baseline income, the demand can be inconsistent and dependent on factors like location, competition, and seasonality. It’s not as unpredictable as a 2, where income swings wildly, but it lacks the predictability of a 4, where most months are similar and dependable. Many technicians report variability in their earnings, making it moderately stable but not fully reliable as a sole income source.
