I know 2.. although I haven't talked to either in a few months and they arnt new to the work. but one used to pulled like 60k out of a tuffy. now how he did that I don't know but now he's at a dealer and last I heard he liked it. I didn't ask about money thou but figured it had to be good. the other works out at the ford off i4 on trucks and shit.


I think I'll give them a call and see what's new.



oh and if your hurting at a dealer, try harline, they were hiring a few weeks ago, may still be and its hourly.

Im just letting you know a new tech in the field wont make $50,000 no matter how hard he works right now. Even experienced techs arent doing that right now.

yeah, it was more telling IT guys that bitch about how hard their jobs are to go do some real work for a year and then they will be happy to sit inside in front of their computers.

i did call one of my tech buddy's that makes good money at it and he said yeah, everyone is broke right now. so he's buying a snap on truck. i have no idea how that works out, but whatever lol. the other is still doing pretty good. people with big ass ford trucks still gotta have their shit fixed i guess.

on that note, its going to be cold as fuck in the morning. if your in the bays, keep the doors closed if they let you man.

dude, you sound fucked.


being on probation makes shit even harder. like i said earlier, stake and shake is hiring 3rd shift. hit that up and shake your ass for better tips.

or just whore yourself out to old gay guys, may as well do it now for money than free in jail when you can't pay your po
