I'm an auto tech at a Chevy dealership here in New Orleans. I've been ASE Master certified and just recently GM Master certified.
Don't make the mistake I have, If cars are you hobby, don't make it your career. My hobby suffers unfortunalty. Just look at the condition of my car....lol. After turning wrenches all day, I'm whipped out by the time I get home to work on my Z28.

Beat this: Mickey D's. I won;t even drive my bird there for work for fear of vandalism by honda boy, my arch enemy in the world of cars. Too bad I can;t race him. He doesnt even have a car let alone his 475 horse civic he boasts about.
17 years old....
I work at CitiBank for the summer (40 hours a week)
Did telemarketing for 9 months(30 hours a week PLUS SCHOOL)
My parents didn't pay for a thing on my car, and i'm pretty proud of that.
Semlud, I've got YOU beat........$8.75 an hour at CitiBank........you better believe about 75% of that money will go right into my car......
Hopefully some more engine mods
SO MANY HONDAS TO BEAT......SO LITTLE TIME

Welllll I work at Subway, but thats as a favor to help out my girlfriends mom who needed an employee, I'm about done there, should be starting detailing at a Pontiac/Cadilac/GMC dealer in a week or two.
Yes I paid for everything on my car, Subway couldnt handle that, its from an accident settlement, just so people dont think Im some kind of "street pharmacuticals" dealer

Well I just turned 21, paid for everything on my 2 camaros including the cars. And still ahve a mess load of money to put into my 86 to get it the way I want. I work for the bank of New York in their stock transfer department. Hopefully out of there and into the Brokerage after I take my Series 6 and 7 in December and January. But the good thing is I get to stay on here all day long right now since there is hardly any work. It pays good and I work 10 minutes from where I live. The comute is good and fast I can wake up at 7:45 or 8:45 depending on what time I want to go to work and be there at 8 or 9. I love this place.
