Time for your ass to call up UTI. Gotta give it to you though, there is no way in hell I would do that much physical labor for that price every week.

I know what you mean about the hours and time so sometimes it's nice to do it that way. I am pretty much to the point to where if I'm going to get paid to work on cars I'm going to UTI and joining their nascar program so I can get my foot in the door with working on race cars.
