Default In need of a job

well i'm getting pretty fed up with advanced autos ****. main manager quit and the new one is more concerned about cleaning the store rather then selling parts and helping people. plus i was promised a managers position and she's playing hardball with me on it so i'm ready to leave.. plus i havn't gotten a raise or anything sence i've been there and with 2 cars,apartment, food,Ect i need something that pays a little bit better... i also have no interest in selling parts but rather putting them on. i currently go to the School of Automotive Machinest, so i can work week days after 12:30 and maybe weekends. i know a bit about cars but am still learning and would like to work on cars durring year to help me out in school. so if anyone needs a helping hand or anything please PM me. Thanks!

electronics assembly line type stuff. super easy, solder green wire to black square kind of stuff. just your basic mind numbing repetitive task to pay the bills.
