job
job Im looking for a job for the summer and something that would fit for working during my sr year of high school. Iv been looking all around katy and cant find anything promising. Im mostly looking for some kind of a job where i can work on cars but every shop iv been too isnt hiring or doesnt want some kid. I have the experience of working on cars iv been working on them since my brother got his 95 trans am. which was back when i was in jr high and now im in high school. I have plenty of experence, iv done numerious transmission installs and engine installs. so does anyone have any suggestions where to look
Ever try Advanced Auto's, Oreilly's, or Autozone? I know its not the best but at least its car related. I worked there when i was about 19 going to college making 8.00 an hour..
tried orelly's but that was a no go, im gunna try some of the jiffy lub palces around here
firestone. they're open 7 days a week, tell 'em you wanna be a gs for now and work up to being a tech. its a real **** job, but it pays and once you become a tech its money on par with what dealers will offer you.
ill def do that i forgot that we had one down the street from me, but what is a gs?

Try NTB as a tire technician. I worked there for a year in college. You don't do a lot of "work" on cars, but you get to be around them and learn a lot of manufacture styles by checking out the engines while you're doing oil changes. You can also learn how to do a lot of things other than tires and oil. I'm now the "alignment specialist" at the shop I work at and I learned how at NTB without any classes.
You start around $8 an hour for a month and then go on commission. I used to average like $9 an hour and I took smoke breaks after almost every car lol.
Tell them you can start full time (if you want) and that you need to be part time when August rolls around. They were always really good about working around my schedule. And they're open late so you'll have plenty of time to get your hours in after school.

ill apply online for that. The car has been doing good acouple of months ago i got a pretty big speeding ticket so it dealyed modding my car but now im ordering a manual cut-out and a lid. Im trying to get a job so i can buy my full exhaust. Hows your truck and your camaro going
tickets are a bitch! well im selling the truck and keeping the camaro now and am just going to fix it back up, already have an oem ss hood and spoiler on the way to put on it and then im taking it to have true duals put on and have to put a ls6 intake back on it and itl be good for a lil while, but once the truck sells il have plenty of $$ to mod it 
NTB isnt too bad to work at though, but im also going to apply at firestone and discount. either that or im going to be a personal trainer at my gym.

the camaro should be sick once the truck sells i tried appling online for ntb but each time i click the location i want to apply at all it does is unchecks it 
im gunna apply at firestone also. I went by there yestorday and saw they were hiring so ill check that out. Oh okay that doesnt sound too bad for a summer job. Hopfully i would be moved up by then end of the summer. I have plenty of experience for the job.
the best thingsabout firestone are 1) they are very quick with hiring, i applied on a tuesday and the following monday i was starting work. 2) its damn near idiot proof as far as job stability is concerned. and 3) it pays the bills and i get to be outside.
update iv went to every auto parts store around here and so far no one is hiring, i tried the firestone place but the manager basically told me that he doesnt want to train me and leave when the summer is up. Most of the jiffy lube places around my area arnt looking for people either. So does anyone know who is hiring at all??? it does not have to be automotive related at all i just need a job at this point
