Hi fellow IA'rs. I am going into my final quarter at Griffin Tech for autobody collision and repair. My job is probably going to lay me off by end of month, or by end of Feb for sure.

What I am asking is if anyone is looking, or knows any shop that maybe looking for a intern. My idea is too intern at a low pay rate, or for free to gain my expeirience.

I will be getting unemployment in the inevitable layoff, so I will be able to afford to intern for free, depending on location. The free part is more so like for 3-4 months, then have a chance to be hired on if my work/progression is satisfactory.

I have 2 cars, so I'm not overly concerned with travel, tho I would like something closer to the house. I live in Palmetto, which is 85-south, but I'm open to anything anyhow.

I just want to get into doing what I love. Oh, I do have the option of going 1 more quarter for refinishing. I have done some painting, but mostly autobody so far.

Thanks in advance for any help, or for just reading! ....Dre
