I like working on cars, trucks, bikes, and whatever else is put in front of me. I was almost a mechanic but got a good job as an electrician

Re: Are you a mechanic ?

So far I can do everything but change the spark plugs on my van, and the only reason I don't attemp that is because it involves rotating the engine forward to reach the rear plugs.

Re: Are you a mechanic ?

Was a tech for 2 years. Started off doing the vo-tech program my junior year in high school and working part time. The vo-tech was a 2 year program and the class was fun. But once I actually started working in shops, I realized I only liked working on cars when I don't HAVE to. And no it wasn't just changing oil and doing tires. That's not tech work. I was doing some simple to intermediate diagnosing. Of course at my age though, I didn't know nearly close to half of anything so I needed a little bit of help sometimes.

Working in a stuffy *** shop, it's hard to get motivated when its 108 degrees, and when it's 10.8 degrees. So now I'm going to school to get my bachelors in business administration, be a manager of some place and make a **** ton of money doing not a damn thing.
