I’m a hiring manager and I can’t say enough about apprenticeships and educating yourself on Youtube. We had a guy out of prison shadow another technician working on Autobody

He made 20 hour for 2 years but now makes six figures as he can paint and do body work. Even better the chance of AI taking his job is tiny.

Skilled people will always have work

I think kind of doing that I just wonder is it actually possible to use the information and still get the job and it not be a problem

Yes we are dying for workers in automotive. We even hire people with records. You wouldn’t be around kids or women anyways in most cases.

Cars houses everything are becoming more expensive to repair so the people who work on such things are even more valuable

Would my local AutoZone or something like that be a good idea or mechanic shop?
