  Mechanic

  I worked in this job during weekends for college and holidays etc.I was a truck dismantler, so we’d take a truck into the garage take it a part and stock in on the shelves along with this job I also had to be a customer assistant helping them out making sure they have the appropriate parts that are good quality, and it built a relationship with the customer to make them feel more comfortable to come into our office.It also gave me first hand look into the goings on inside a truck, from how the engine, gearbox, and transmissions function which is very interesting.
