Damn Dood. Sounds like its time to go to BMW for some training and a long term goal. A neighbor of mine did this at Tischer last Summer and said he loved it. Went from an indie shop in Beltsville.

Good luck, you'll do just fine.

Wait, are you talking about the Lincoln dealership, or the MACA hookup? :-D

I know your connections at Ford have come in handy for quite a few members, Jose. Good luck with the new brand!

Having a job is still better than not.
Whatcha gonna be working on now, Jose?

Im going to stay and be a service writer for used cars and we'll be servicing all makes and models untill the Metro bulldozes the property. After that ill have a job lined up within the company to be a bodyshop estimator. Im pretty burned out on parts and coming up on max pay for a parts guy. Time to try something new. Like they say when one door closes, two more open up.

I think you'll do a fine job inspecting bodies. You can make extra money if your real hands on!

Sorry to hear my friend but, good to hear you have a back up plan so, no down time. That's good in this economy....my g/f was out of work for 2 years. Of course she did not try real hard to go back..LOL!
