[QUOTE="j3bus2k3, post: 2459909, member: 556020"] I had my first job when I was 15 working in the Kitchen at a restaurant. Sucked, but it payed $8.50/hour. Next job was a machine shop job that I loved. I played soccer across the street from them and every friday, we'd stop playing to watch them roll out their drag car and do a few test runs down the road to make sure everything's running smooth before they headed out to the track. At the time, I had no mechanic's experience or machine experience but I wanted to be around that car. So I applied for a job as a formality and went back every day for 3 weeks asking the manager if they had an opening until one day I caught the owner. He called me over and looked at my app and I immediatly noticed one thing. On the top of my app, they wrote "Clean cut and determined." Owner said "well, your here often enough so we might as well give ya a job..." Started the next day and worked there for 2 years until I went to school. Just have to find a job you really want and show the people that you want it more than anyone else... [/QUOTE]
