Default New Job

So i found out today that i have a forsure interview at a Hummer dealership down here. I will probably end up getting the job because my best friend's dad knows a guy or somethin like that. All I will be doing as of now is detailing and runnin around getting stuff for people/mechanics. However, after i work there for awhile they might start training me on doing body work! So hopefully everything goes well because this will be a great jumpstart to a career in the automotive industry. I'll start out making 8-9 bucks an hour. It's a full time job and I'm pretty sure I'm going to get benefits too. Anyways just thought I'd share. Wish me luck!

Congrats Dude. In todays economy $8-9 an hour plus benefits ain't a bad start to things. That body work is a rough way to make a livin though. Get good at sprayin if you go that route. A good painter can make a decent livin and stay almost healthy, the rest of the body work is nothin but grunt labor that never will pay much in the end and take a heavy toll on yer body to boot.

she sent me pictures of her cast today. she has it for 3 months. idk what is gonna happen with the truck though. she cant get any mail cause it forwards it to TN and she is in MN. so the whole letter or care package wouldn't have worked out.

UNCLE BUBBA-
yeah that's what my friends dad said. to try and get into the painting part. he said a good one can make around 100k a year. and yeah that kinda money ain't bad considering i was making just 6.55 at sonic. and only getting like 20-27 hours a week. so at 19 i'd say 8-9 bucks and benefits aint bad at all.
