I used to be a technician for a BMW dealership where we serviced an Alpina B7 with eyelashes. Clearly money can’t buy taste.

34·2 days agoRelevant song by Woody Guthrie: Pretty Boy Floyd
Yes, as through this world I’ve wandered
I’ve seen lots of funny men;
Some will rob you with a six-gun,
And some with a fountain pen.
And as through your life you travel,
Yes, as through your life you roam,
You won’t never see an outlaw.
Drive a family from their home.

politics @lemmy.world•Former Sen. Ben Sasse announces he has stage 4 pancreatic cancer and is ‘gonna die’English
83·2 days agoIn announcing his Senate candidacy, Sasse expressed strong opposition to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), calling himself “the anti-Obamacare candidate” and declaring that “If it lives, America as we know it will die.” In the Senate, Sasse continued to support repeal of the ACA. In 2017, with Republicans unable to develop a repeal-and-replace plan that could secure a majority in the Senate, Sasse proposed an immediate repeal with a one-year delay in implementation, and called on the Senate to give up its August recess to allow it to work on a replacement measure.
I have no sympathy for people who condemn others to death or poverty in order to enrich themselves. Reap the whirlwind, motherfucker.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Would it really improve my chances of getting an auto mechanic job if I take an Automotive Technician program at my local college?English
5·6 days agoI went to a trade school to be an automotive tech, and they had a job fair near the end of the program where all of the local dealerships came out to give out information and set up interviews.
I came out of the program with an entry level hourly position as a technician at the BMW dealership and worked with a master tech until I was ready to start flagging hours.
Speaking as someone from the USA, so there’s probably a bit of a cultural difference, but I’d say it’s the most likely way to secure a decent job in the industry. Otherwise, you could likely get a job busting down tires and doing oil changes at a local shop. You’ll be getting experience that way, but what you learn will be very dependent on the individual shop. It’s a much cheaper alternative, though (at least in the US).
