;D ;D
we do pick on other's norm Amante but we have a new person to take the pee out of....... ;D
Would be good to be out riding in this lovely weather but ..... :-?5 weeks now laid up with a broken ankle....... :o never been so bored in my life and looking out at the sunny weather and the bike makes it so much more painful :'( :'( :'( :'(
Jesus im suprised no-ones picked on me for my sudden outburst of posting......my job really is that boring :D
;D ;D im sure its better than having no job like me. wana work in a bike shop or as a bike mechanic apprentice. but duno how to get started
Have you done any colleage work on this and have a bit of paper behind you, this might help then from there slap your CV to every bike shop/service centre in wiltshire and see what you get....
not yet but have applyed to do mechanics at collage starting in september and that takes a year
In the meantime I would get your butt down to the local garage and ask if you can learn from them for free or such like, then they might take you on once you have got your paper work....
im going to pop round a few in the next few days, but i only have hayballs and sjs or burnout bikes near me so gessing its not going to go well lol, fingers crossed
With that attitude you've defeated yourself before you've started Steve... Why wait until a few days' time? Do it tomorrow... ::)Quote:

You have absolutely nothing to lose by asking if you can hang around and learn, or work part-time, the worst that they can say is "no"
Something that a mechanic lives or dies by in the professional sense is his or her tools, it's how they earn their living, and generally they have to provide their own - could be a problem helping out as you'd have to borrow theirs and as a rule they never (or at best, rarely) lend them out. All you can do is approach them and say that you have no tools, don't really know anything, but want to learn. If it's something that you really want to do, then it may be worth getting any job, anywhere, in the meantime - stacking shelves, warehouse work, anything to bring a bit of money in ahead of the college course - and spend some of what you earn acquiring a collection of DECENT tools - check the local classifieds, car boot sales and so on, but get decent stuff if you can find it. The golden rule for tools is "Buy Cheap, Buy Twice". I have heaps of stuff, but it's been gradually acquired over 30 years, a bit at a time - I was excited last year to get a set of Snap-On 3/8" deep reach hex sockets for £85 from a guy at work - I know I'll never need buy another 3/8" socket - that's TOOL WANG! ;)
bloody hell scotty, thanks for the kick up the bum, very wise words, will have a go 2moz then and let ya know how it all goes. will defo have to get some tools then, never new all that.
if anyone knows of bike sales jobs or mechanics can ya plz let me know, i would be very greatfull thanks [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
