My part-time job when I retired
This two-man shop (the owner and me) did all kinds of work on mostly 30s to 70s cars and trucks. The "Business Hours" sign gives you an idea of how important it was to be at work on time.
 Loved that place, but the Obamacare law jacked up the owner's medical insurance premiums by a factor of 3-4  , so he ended up fixing school busses for the county, and then teaching auto shop at a community college.
