Well, I haven't been posting on here too much lately because I left my old job of sitting at a desk and doing nothing but surfing the web for a couple hours a day....
New job: , I am now working at Porsche N.Scottsdale. I've starting out as a service valet, just shuttling cars around, parking them, topping off fluids and what not... I gotta say I never thought I would enjoy driving cars around a parking lot all day, but when they happen to be 911 gt2's, gt3's, and turbo's and what-not it's pretty fun.... The only part I hate is when the Carrera GT's come in, only the tech's get to drive them( although I'm sure I'll get to ride shotgun at some point).
Also last week the service manager and I were talking and he told me that as soon as we find a replacement for me, he is gonna move me up to a lube and tire tech. .

Right now all I'm hoping for is everything to go well here and by the time I gradiate from U.T.I. they will move me up to an apprenticeship and start in on some real work.

So as of right now my plan is to stay out here for a couple years get some experience, some ASE's and then move back home, don't get me wrong Arizona is a great place but I don't wanna be here forever, and definitely don't wanna start a family down here...
