automotive, 3.5 years in the trade. worked full time at mazda but now only part time at ford while i am in school. love working on cars, just decided it was ruining my love for them. alot of people were upset about this and my manager is still trying to convince me to come back to full time and get my ticket.

I worked in the Automotive trade for 12 year. Licence Journeyman. Have bin laid off twice. GM is a bitter mistress. Haven't work for over a year. Have been looking but the market is flooded with techs now. Going back to school before I really hate Vehicles.

My, aren't you the lucky one? KMC still the wonderful company it once was- or do you not need to service their account?

You could always ask for a transfer... I shouldn't say that. The Finning mechanics I talked to didn't find it so bad as they were not directly employed by Klemke. KMC actually turned me off of running equipment for other people. Bought a midi excavator, but I'm though running other people's junk.

On a side note I ended up employed with a smaller shop in town for awhile- mostly Peterbuilts- but they would do just about anything. There was no shortage in variety of work nor models to work on. Some days I miss it.
