[QUOTE="tj04cobra, post: 10624090, member: 73436"] The things I hated the most as a little kid I am thankful for now. My dad had me turning wrenches in the garage with him every chance he got on his 69 Chevelle SS since I was 11 all the way thru high school. We went thru the whole car taking out the 396 and putting a built 496 BBC with a fat ass cam and huge AFR heads and a built rear and trans. The car turned out pretty sick. I always wanted to go do kid crap, but damn am I glad because I possess some decent skills in turning wrenches as a career. I am thankful because a lot of kids don't have parents to spend time with. I hated that he was so damn hard on me and would NEVER relax. Now I looked back and see how much it was for the good of me and I had to call him and thank him a while back. He taught he good work ethic. I was raking in good money for a twelve year old mowing 10-15 lawns a week every summer till I was old enough to have a real job and then pay for my first vehicle and fix it up almost on my own. I never ever played video games, EVER. I'm glad about that he wouldn't let me. I tried college for a bit but it was hard for me to pay for books and tuition on my own without getting loans. So I hit the work force and started turning wrenches. I got some bad ass training from my boss who I work for now and I LOVE what i do. So thanks dad, I ain't hatin! [/QUOTE]
