well im done with school and i got a job

Post by SteveC »

Ok I'm done with school. (except for a online class). I took my practice ASE tests. (the only difference between them and real tests is that the practice are 50% to pass and the real are around 70 to 80 % I believe.) I passed all of my practice tests with flying colors. A/C and auto transmissions need a bit of work but over all I did well. I also got a pretty good mechanic job I work a lot lol. I work 8 to 530 monday thru Friday and 8 to 130 on sat with one saturday off a month. Plus I'm on commission pay which isn't always the best for guaranteed pay. But hopefully it all works out. The shop is pretty busy though. So any who I'm headed to bed cause I gotta get up at 7am.
I don't really care about brands Chevy Ford Dodge ...as long as it doesn't sound like two old dudes farting in a coffee can.
