Last Day
Finally, last day to work, I had known everyone from the shop since i had came to work last semester starting my hours in my other school. It had been fun getting to know these people and what they love to do everyday of their life. I finally got into work, and had a lot of freedom in the shop, was able to change the oil in my car in the shop thanks to my mentors permission, and was able to see and engine swap on a car once again. I never knew how heavy and engine could be, and a lot of work to just place it into a car. Had fun working here, and was able to get something helpful in the future like wokring on my own cars without having to bring it into a shop for simple stuff.

Me and Mentor went over his house to shadow how he worked on his Range Rover. He had sorta like a shop in his garage, enough tools to work on any car, but not the right machinery for a huge work. He installled a new computer network into the car, and was having a hard time working on newer cars. It was a new 2012 Range Rover all black, and had barely any miles into the car. Nice car, but had my mentor working on it for a while.

Messed up a bit today on learning how to propelry put each spark plug for a car. Had many of them for a V-8 truck that had came in. But was able to get help to fix it right on time, Mentor wasn't able to work much but a couple of his co-workers teached me and was able to shadow them on their work. Soon after that just helped on fixing this motorcyle bike that had came in and just got to watch. This people eat, sleep, and just live on fixing cars and bikes.

Today was going of a slow day, nothing really went on today. So my mentor came out with his son to do work on his 73 Camaro, we worked on its exhaust and changed a bit of the fluids for the engine. Checked the smogged as well, and have been learning how to properly change the tire of a rim. Took a while to learn but got the best out of it, over all slow but productive day.

Same thing like always, today I helped mangaging costumer service. Helping people in the front counter making sure I know exactly what they needed for their car. I called over my mentor a couple times for help, and he took care of most the work. Many new cars came in, like a couple of BMW needing an oil change and muslce cars like a Mustang GT.

Today I had a hard time learning the way to properly change the oil in a car. We had work on the 73 camaro once again and had changed up some of the tires, as well as fix the brakes with brake fluid. Had trouble changing the rims of tires since i didnt corecctly learn the way to change them, still learning everything in the shop and the many hobbies everyone has inside, go to meet a lot of new people and tell about the life they have in the shop.
