OT -- Professional Mechanics? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

MACKL · 08-05-2004, 10:16 PM

I was reading some of the threads and was wondering. How many board members are professional mechanics and how did you get started?

I have earned my living turning wrenches since 1980. I started pushing a broom in the shop at a Charlie Bradshaw Chevy in Memphis TN.
I was impressed with the guys on the shop floor and wanted to be just like them. I Left there to go to votech to get out from behind the broom. One job led to the next and now I manage a fleet of 450 delivery trucks, 85 OTR trucks and 300 trailers. (but NO brooms.)

I can tell from some of the post that there are a lot of other pros out there to. I would love to hear your story of how you got started.
