I am looking to employ a mechanic on weekends only to do repairs and maintenance on my ACVW collection.
This would suit a mechanically minded youngster who is looking for employment experience, or even a qualified mechanic who is underemployed.
I would need the person to work on Saturdays and Sundays. I pay a generous daily rate, negotiable depending on ACVW knowledge and experience.
I would prefer someone with some experience with ACVWs, but I am willing to train and share my experience with a youngster who has a passion for ACVWs.
If you are interested in the job please call me on 0824634720.
Please feel free to forward this message to anyone who might fit the bill.

BUMP.
Record high unemployment and no takers so far!
Does anybody know of a young car enthusiast who'd like to earn some money and learn about ACVWs?

Re: JOB OFFER: Part time apprentice ACVW mechanic
Problem is youngsters are just not prepared to get their hands dirty.
I had a conversation with my bro who runs 2 successful businesses in the motor industry, in the past 6-8 years he has employed around 10 "appies", everything according to industry requirements.
Only 1 has gone half way to completing the apprenticeship, most drop out in the first year, LOL.

For what it's worth, ignorance has no limits ......

Re: JOB OFFER: Part time apprentice ACVW mechanic
It was no different when I was an appy. The only difference why you didn't quit was because:
1) We had pride in finishing what we started in those days.
2) My Dad would have moered me to death if I quit ANYTHING.
