Serious is what I’m about. I’m eighteen
and now engaged, so I know what I’m planning on doing
with my life. I look forward to becoming a technician and
making good money and I’m also looking forward to marriage
and that requires money most of the time.
I work at Global Auto Service where the
boss knows I am a hard and smart worker, not sloppy. I have
worked on many cars, but would like to specialize in BMW
I am planning on working a few years as a
technician until I save enough to be able to let my father
and mother retire and be able to them as they supported me.

Since the age of seven, I always helped my
dad fix his semi.
As I grew I got more into motors and
transmissions, everything on the truck. I always liked working on the truck, and
always wanted to
know how everything worked and have a better understanding.
I’m here because I want to know how to understand and fix
cars. I see myself going on to a dealership. I will get
there by doing my best. I am very determined and really
don’t want to be a failure in life.

I started my first job when I was 13
working for a construction company. Since then I’ve been a
cook. I’ve washed dishes, worked fryers, grills, broilers,
convection ovens, written schedules, interviewed, hired and
fired employees, done inventory, ordering and training. I
like to feel like I earn my money so I don’t mind working
hard.
I have always had an interest in cars,
trucks and motorcycles. I know the money is in new
technology, but I would rather work on classic cars and
trucks. I hope to get into a dealership like Mercedes or BMW
and to be able to rebuild and restore cars on the weekend.

I graduated from Lake Worth High School in
May. I’ve worked a number of jobs ranging anywhere from bag
boy at Publix to a line cook, to my current job at Home
Depot..
I hope to better my skills
and my knowledge of cars from bumper to bumper. I
want to be able to fix almost everything. I know I can’t
know everything, but I want to try. I’m going to give it all
I’ve got.
I hope to be able to work for a
dealership. I want to make good money and I am going to work
very hard to get there.

I’m in this program to become a master
tech. I am a driver by trade but no longer wish to drive
trucks. I only have limited experience with cars, but it’s
my only true interest.
I’m taking this class seriously
because it will be my livelihood. I’m a parent of two kids
and their future depends on me. My brother is taking the
same course as me and we plan on going into business
together. |

The main reason I signed up for this
program is (and I’m not going to lie) that I want to go
fast. But I know that is not possible without the basic
knowledge of how a car works.
I plan to also take the auto
body repair program and someday own my own customization
shop. I have loved cars all my life and wish to
be 100% dedicated to this program.
I love tuning cars and going fast but I
know I can’t run before I learn to walk. So I’m here to
start supporting myself on my feet and get closer to my
goal.

I have worked here and there with my
father in his backyard garage working on many different
cars. We have done many things including painting,
transmissions and body work. My brother, father and I have a
very good relationship and we all would like to have a shop
someday.
I am taking this class to help me learn
about vehicles in and out, and to pave the way for making
some real money, and eventually owning a tuning shop. I want
to learn as much as possible while I am here and get my
first job as a tech at a dealership.

I registered for the Automotive
Service Technician program in order to become a certified
technician to pursue a career in the automotive industry.
When I graduated from high school I tried
to take regular college courses such as Math and English.
After a while I realized that I did not want to go to school
to the same thing I did in high school.
I do not believe there is any reason why I
cannot pass this class and become a great service
technician, work for a great company and possibly someday
own my own business. I believe that if I work hard all the
things I’ve said can come true.
