Title: Starting All Over...
Post by: Conceptz-X on September 20, 2009, 12:17:46 AM
Well, I'm getting divorced, told the wife I couldnt live in this town long from the start.  I grew up on an Island so large bodies of water are a little bit of a necessity for me. 

Right now, I'm working on getting my MR2 straight, then drop a 302 in the pickup, load up and show this shithole my taillights.  Right now, I have no fucking clue which direction to head out.  Figured Id ask for some input.

Education:
1) Trade School
Auto Mechanics

2) University of NorthWestern Ohio
High Performance Automotive Technology
Associates

3) Marine Mechanics Institute
Marine Repair
Dropped out with an offer to teach

Experience:
1) Hot To Go Racing
2-stroke R&D tech, engine builder

2) Initial Marine Corp.
Boat Building (all aspects), Factory Race Support

3) Halls Propeller Service
Propeller repair (tig welding) Race Team Support (3 Teams)

4) A-Carburetor Service
Automotive Tech, primarily wiring and diagnostic

I have no ASE's

I'd go back no NY but the job market is drying up more every day...

With all that background if you have any sense of business you should be able to make a living doing your own thing.

  Change is shitty, but not when you realize you're on your own again. Free to chase anything and everything, no matter where it is.

  Think of what you would consider a badass job with your experience. Find the company that employs those badass jobs, go there, and make shit happen. No matter where that job takes you, there's sure to be a warm birth tunnel nearby.

I'm thinking once I get my MR2 Boosted, I should be able to get some work from some of these faggot ricers here to buy me a tig welder and some other small fab tools, and help get the pickup done sooner.  Hopefully by then I'll have an Idea which direction to roll out.

I presently reside in a Yankee dispising community of rednecks who regularly discharge firearms for any reason they see fit.  Yet I have no fear in discussing the civil war with them.  I have left a few upset with their new understanding of it.

Whores, have 'em
trailer parks, I live in 1
Meth, almost had to excersize my right to property and put one down

I dont fear stepping off into uncharted waters, I go in prepared and expecting it to be difficult.  

Last time, when I moved to FL, I had enough cash for the 1st mo rent, a months worth of home cooked food, and some money for gas, $1000  450 went to my appt.  and I got the job I dreamed of 1st day there.   I dont expect that again, but you never know till you hang it out there and take chances.

Reading that reminds me of Louisiana in high school years ago where the locals still refer to the Civil War as the War of Northern Aggression.

I confuse some of them when they try to label me as a Yankee and I tell them I'm from Wyoming. ;D

Add then some those confused rednecks would ask me if Wyo. was a state yet, and be very serious about that. :?:

Not sure if I will see her face to face again, she's AWOL right now.  I dont care.  I have an old lost high school friend I have been talking to now, and it seems to be going well between us, we have always seen eye to eye. just lost touch.  And she's hotter than the wife...

Wait a goddamn minute, those are Newports on the table under her right armpit.  I have $50 that says there's porn of her pulling a train with at least two and more likely five of my nubian brothers floating around on the internet.   O0

It's not racist saying black men like Newports.  I'm irish, I fucking loooooove Guinness and potatos.  It's your angry pejorative "nigger" that's racist.

It's only racist if you think *all* irish people like Guinness and potatoes, and it's only race baiters who get all worked up by stereotypes that have a strong statistical correlation.

Such attacks are extremely rare, though some health officials have put their communities on high alert, telling people to stay away from warm, standing water.

Come mid march That lake gets pretty wild
oh, I know...


I'll probably stay in NY 3-4 months after I leave AL, just to visit with friends and family.  Its been 5 years since I have been up there, dont know how long it will be this go around.  My sis is pretty good to me, she's hooking me up with a flight home in 2 weeks on her frequent flier miles.  Maybe she will help me out later if shit dosent work out as well as I hope.  Either way, I'll make it out there, be it working for someone or myself.
