may not be much to anyone else, but im happy and excited. My autotech teacher recommended me to a fellow he knows who runs his own small mechanics business (family owned, 4 bays) So im starting off pretty basic, but im glad i finally got into the automotive field. So over this year i can work and gain some sweet experience before i head off to mechanics school or something like wyotech. I go everyday after school for about 3-4 hours.. Plus whats cool is no weekends. I start monday:biggrin:
Just sharing my happiness

My autotech teacher did the same for me when I graduated. I worked for the ford dealer here in Kingsport for about a year and then a company dealing in diesel engines wooed me until I went into the Army. I made some killer money working on cars.

31P Microwave sys specialist.The military and I didn't mesh. Did basic and opted out afterwards. At 19, I was in no position to hurry up and wait. It is perfect for some, just not me.
