The Mechanic, Page 2

One of Patricia's hobbies was gardening. She liked to garden with her friend Susan. A typical day of gardening involved Susan coming over to Patricia's house. The would go out to Patricia's garden and start by cutting any plants that need pruning and then they would plant the annuls that would make Patricia's garden look great. They would work for about two hours and then call it a day because they were exhausted.

After computer city college Patricia tried farming because that is what she went to college for but, then she decided that she did not enjoy farming full time and there was not enough money in farming so she decided that she needed to find another job.

She surveyed her interests and talents and decided to become a automotive mechanic. Then she had to decide the best was to lean how to become an automotive mechanic. She picked a trade school. Computer city automotive school. The school was founded in 1980 by a team of people who wanted to bring the joy of learning automotive repair to the masses of computer city.

The building that it was housed in was a former warehouse converted into the school. The building was large and square with many garage doors perfect for an automotive school. There were several class room area's with connected shops. The students would spend time in the classroom learning from textbooks and getting instruction from an instructor and then get go out to the shop and learn hands on experience. The was one one degree. It was two years and guaranteed that the school would help try to find the graduating student a job when they graduated. The tuition was 20,000 dollars but, that was a lot cheaper than going to a university or on an expensive European vacation say.

Patricia graduated at the top of her class. She worked endless hours on cars wanting to get as much practice as she could on different automotive problems so that when she did get a job she would be ready to tackle an problem. She believed that hard work would be the thing that would set her apart from other mechanics and make her one of the best mechanics that computer city or the would had ever seen.

After graduation Patrica got a job at a department store to repair the fleet cars. She was really looking forward to her new job.

Patricia would be involved preventative maintenance on the stores delivery vans. Its was a job that she thought she was sure to enjoy and look forward to going to everyday.
