50+ hours per week pimping parts for a small VW retail shop. 10-15 hours per week doing freelance web design (pays a lot better).

The rest of the time, I'm a juvenile delinquent.

Aircraft maintenance engineer. (fancy way to say licenced airplane mechanic)

I do restorations on antique and classic light planes, sell parts, brokering, appraisals, annual inspections, and run a hay farm that grows alot of busses lateley.

The income though comes from being a slumlord, gotta love that commercial real estate.

so your one of those punks that tries to sell me every friggin filter, fluid, and dodad EVERY time i take a car in to get a basic oil change?
"sir, our records indicate that you havent changed your in-cabin airfilter in 3 and a half weeks, we recommend that you change it at least once a week; would you like me to go ahead and change it for you?"
gets me angry just thinking about it....... :wacko:

oh yeah, im an apprentice machinist....

haha, that reminds me of a time my dad took his car in for an oil change, the previous day he had his rear end oil changed/serviced...and they were trying to tell him it needed to be done and wouldnt recomend him driving the car till it was done.
