gnosez Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Has anyone kept track and plotted all the Tony Ds that exist in the body of one man? And the big grubs go in your ear! Didn't you listen during orientation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loy Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Never talk about compensation unless you have the offer in hand! Never bad mouth previous employers. Research the company. Have questions to ask them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelly Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I'll come at this from another angle... Go find a SMALL outfit. Ask if you can be their parts running/wrench caddie and shop sweeper. You'd be surprised at how many of them might say yes. I know of a couple of one-man or two man operations here in my area that do this with "Summer only" types. They don't pay much but they do give them a summer's worth of hands on experience that eventually translates into "Dude can you install plugs in that civic over there? And change the ailfilter while you're at it". I here people for a living and what everyone else has stated is true about getting into your chosen profession for the reasons they've all specified. But I get your intended need to get your hands dirty and desire to learn. It IS a tough market out there, but I hire people who have more than a degree. Matter of fact, I'll hire a guy with direct hands on experience before i'll hire someone with a degree, because I can pay for their education (I've paid for 6 masters degrees for staff members to date) and that is far easier to get than hands on experience. Good luck!Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
