Hey Guys & Gals,

Since I know you alot of you pretty well, I'd like to share some good news with you all.

At my current place of employment, things arent going so well, sales down, renewals not happening so I'll be let go July 1st.... HOWEVER...! theres a silver lining :) I decided to take a chance and do something I've wanted to do since I ever cared about cars, I'll be working as the Lead Tech for Pcars/FastForward Wheels in Monterey Park!

I was tired of sitting on my @55 all day and doing nothing. I needed to construct my own fork in this straight highway that is my life. Luckly I have loads and loads of tools and knowledge and knowledge to work on these Porsches that are at there shop. Also I used to work part time for several independant shops in the harbor area, even afew majors like Nissan/Infinity, so this isnt really a leap off the deep end for me :D

Im just so excited to finally work on the cars that I love and get paid for it :cheers:

A chance to combine your passion and your career. Very few get that opportunity. I am so jealous. If I could only land that job at the corn-dog factory. :)

Good Luck

One of the main things my car nut dad hammered into me was the fact that I would work the rest of my life and the key to happiness was figuring out how to make a living doing what you enjoy.
That philosophy has been a key to 57 years, so far, of a damned cool ride :dance:

Go for it CJ and never look back!! :cheers:

Well, replaced the broken window friday nite. It went smoothly as predicted but no i didnt take the 996 out for a spin :D

It was late and there wasnt any reason for me to test drive the car so I sent the 997 owner on his way.
