I own a Paintless Dent Removal business. DentSolutions. I mostly work for high end dealers. Mercedes, Ferrari, Bentley, Lamborghini Dealers. Also work for some high end bodyshops. I usually work about 55 hours a week. I have worked on some very rare cars. The most expensive being a 60's Ferrari valued at $1.2 million. Last week worked on Deion Branch's (SEAHAWKS) Bentley. Also a 1914 Pearce Arrow.

 

February is 10 years, and I still love it. I get to go all over seeing amazing cars and meeting some really great people. Lots of local ball players, Schultz (Starbucks), O'keafe (Tully's) Funny but they both own the same car, and color.

 

On the side I own 2 coffee shops, and am opening another 3 this year. AS if I didn't have enough to do.

Working at a plastic manufracturing plant, operating an extrusion line, and packageing. Our plant just does sheets, but can do virgin pellets. If you got Auto VentShade, or LUND on your truck, the core plastic came from our company (Plaskolite, Inc.). It's actually alot of hard work, since I'm just a lonely grunt, and the pay sucks for the work involved, only at $10.27/hr. However, locally, there isn't much you can do, and they won't raise the pay; though we get several people walk off cause of the work : pay ratio, but unemployment rate is so freakin high, they won't increase the pay. 12 hour shifts, 36 hours one week, 48 the next. Get attendence bonuses, and sometimes a small "profit sharing" bonus every 3 months. All on the job training. Also, I am a volunteer fire fighter / emt, takes more training/schooling then most people think, and the pay truely sucks, lol.

I have been working for McKesson Corporation as a night shift warehouse supervisor for the last 8 years. We are the 18th largest company in the US and the single largest health care company in the world. My division specializes in the wholesale distribution of pharmaceuticals for Arizona, New Mexico and parts of Texas. So if you live in these States and get your medication from any of the local pharmacies it probably came out of my warehouse. I oversee a crew of about 50 employees. It is a great job except for managing the people. :wtf:
