Hayabusa Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Has anyone done this as a job before? Ive heard its decent pay for what it is, and that its pretty easy and laid back....But i've never done it...i am considering persuing it as a summer job to make some money has anyone done it before or know the low down on the work involved?

mightymim Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 i did that awhile back its easy money but at the same time its a pain in the ass dealing with the snobie people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yukon jack Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 i did it for a few months. i dunno what you mean by ''slack'', its not overly labour intensive, but it is still work. theres better jobs out there that can be done more easily while hungover.

El Vergudo Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 im a detailer manager for a dealership, it all depends on who you work for if you want to make money. working for someone is aight money. working for your self is good money. side jobs, touch ups, ect...

T.T Boy Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 yeah i did this years ago. i did it for like 2 years. a dealership will most likley be the best place to work. pick a smaller one, like a small bmw or benz dealership. you can also pick up side jobs and make decent cash with it. its pretty slack and easy enough some places pay up to like 18 canadian, youre canadian right? an hour.

geezpot Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hayabusa, I think you should focus on a summer job that can give you an edge in the field you are going into. Washing cars is so beneath you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayabusa Posted March 19, 2008 Author Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hayabusa, I think you should focus on a summer job that can give you an edge in the field you are going into. Washing cars is so beneath you. work experience through school will take care of that once i get back to school in sept. i have been thinking of a lot of things and this was just one option i have in mind out of many Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
