Got laid off right before Thanksgiving. Trying to do a career change and become a mechanic. It sucks doing it with a family, but being a designer ain't gettin it. BTW working for/with GM SUCKS! Trying to raise a family and go to school and work on the car is tough but will be worth it in the end. Anybody a mechanic out there that can give a 29 year old advice on the field. Thanks guys. This site rocks!!
