Your looking to get out, i'm looking to get back in. I've been looking for months now, and i haven't really seen much outside of the very few stealerships hiring. I've checked with all of the local performance shops as well, and not a single thing. What dealership are you at now?

I'll work at a performance shop for Chevys.
I've been at an independent BMW shop for over a year and I'm just tired of working for a cheap crack head who shotguns every issue with a car. I'd work at a dealership too, even if I have to start as a lube tech.

After 11 years of busting my *** for the owner to make money, while he kept raising his rates to the customers and me getting nothing, I finally decided it was time for a career change.

Not really hard at all, I went from a full automotive background to the Industrial sector without a hitch. Everything is mechanical at a plant and everything needs to be assembled or fixed. If you are mechanically inclined and can prove it you shouldnt have a problem getting the job. Plants and Subcontractors always have hiring lists up somewhere. Start as a hand and work on up.
