Best job I had was working at a little auto shop in the middle of town.  It was just me and Chad, my boss, and he would tell me all these crazy stories from when he was in college and highschool.  I had to change oil, brakes, and just general preventative maintenance.  He would always have his 1970 Roadrunner sitting in there too, and on the off hours he let me take it around the block and hammer it a few times.
Currently I'm unemployed and just applied for another mechanic job, plus there's a guy thats willing to hire me for a tree removal and demolition business.  So I have good options.
