a group of my old friends from high school went to uti in houston and all but 2 are doing other stuff now. one has gotten a job as a tech at a vw dealership in houston and the other one opened a custom shop here where i live that im waiting for it to flop. the one who is a tech is getting great pay and is advancing pretty quickly though, so that one success story out of six.

You're funny, princess. I wager I make more money this year, while a full time college student, than you have so far in your life.

Terrible how? 25-26 hours a week with a take home of $500-750 is what I averaged, and I got first pick of the cute girls who want to get knocked up and become housewives. Actually, they are mostly college girls who are bettering themselves, or still-low-mileage party girls who are going to devolve into complete bar -----s by 25.

Joseph, it seems you are still young enough to pull in that tail. At some point you will turn some age and all younger girls will be repulsed by you and laugh behind your back as you make passes. Of coarse there are the few that have daddy issues and will still ---- you, but they will also try to stab you in your sleep.

This is when a waiter's life turns from "this job isn't bad. I make decent money, ---- cute young girls, get free food, and don't work hard at all" to "Jesus Christ, I live in this shitty house I rent, I'm ------- a 45 year old alcoholic with 3 kids and a c-section scar the size of my forearm, and my dick barely works. WTF!"

That's why he jumped ship and went to college.

You'd make a whole lot more money if you took a shower, put some nice clothes, shaved and tried to just sell the cars instead of working on them.

hey whats up bro.. thats what i thought too but i think its only double mininum if your flagging hours. Actually i used to work for crown toyota in ontario, I work at AV-nissan in palmdale right now. That would be cool but the only problem i have trying to work at another delearship is that they all want to start me off at the bottom all over again because i have yet to have that "tech" experience at a dealership.

---- sucks too. I am starting to pay back all my student loans for UTI and i just moved into a apartment.. So between credit card bills, school loans, rent i dont have a ------- dime to do ---- anymore.. UTI fucked me. I graduated uti in 07 but i have worked at 3 dealerships since 06 and ive relized this isnt where the moneys at now adays.. So i am actually trying to find something else to do with my life. Im not going back to school just trying to find something that actually has potential..

My dealership is a piece of ----. Are highest payed tech makes 25$ a hour and is the only guy who is nissan master certefied, skyline gtr certefied, and ASE master certefied and he has worked there for 14 years. Without him are dealership IS NOT ALLOWED LEGALLY to sell skyline's or any type of hybrid. He is the only one allowed to work on them. 25$ is a ------- joke for how important he is to are dealership..

I told him to do it so he would make more money. you felt inferior for being an "adult" waitress. You tried to insult me.
Sorry JD, Fail. And I don;t want to take on your awesome challenge if all your making is 500$ a week.

I might brag sometimes about stupid ---- like that, but other times ill ---- myself up and lose a few thousand dollars in a childish manner. It's all good who really gives a ---- when there's food on the table, ----- on your dick and boost in your engine.

I jumped ship after I started making even more tuning cars for several regional shops.

I love cars, I'm in it for the long haul right up until it's illegal to buy a gallon of gasoline, but now's the perfect time to get out in a financial sense before the aftermarket performance bit tanks due to the green movement and oil supplies.
