what do everybody here do for a living if you manage to make a living right now. :RantExplode: I have been doing Paintless Dent Repair for about 18 years I have done quite a few survivor type mopars over the years even fixed one in the survivor tent at the nats one year. anyway heres a few shots of what I do.

Do you find the newer stuff easier than our old stuff because of metal thickness?
its actually not that much of a harder compared to the us made trucks and higher end cars, now when you get down to hondas ,kias,hyindai etc its like working tin foil, the main issue with working on older cars is the paint especially original paint cars because as they age the paint loses alot of its elasticity and you run the risk of craking paint, I repaired a 71 hemi challenger with 1800 miles that had hail damage and original paint I was sweating bullets working on it but was paid well to do it.

I saw on CNN today that a school somewhere in us, can't remember, put an ad in the paper for an afternoon janitor at 15 bucks and hour, and the guy got 509 applications.   a ton of them were very qualified skilled trademen, educated, etc. etc.,    the hiring guy said that it wasn't a bad job because you had a decent wage, you knew what hours you were going to work week to week, good benefits, steady work,     just sharing that with ya FYI


Why would you want anything else?  Just give me a Charger and I'll be happy.

Pretty lame job here, I'm a route sales represenative for Hinckley springs bottled water company. Basically a long title for a man who drives a truck and drops off 5 gallon bottles of water and cases of water bottles.

Before that worked as a foreman for Harvey Construction company for 8 years running a crew laying water lines for the city of Indianapolis. Work was pretty fun then, and the pay was great, but the 85-90 hour work weeks put a dent in family time with the wife and boy. So I quit 2 1/2 years ago and took a 40% pay cut to only work 45 hours a week and no weekends.
