    Default Looking for job

    I just moved down here the beginning of this month, and I had a job lined up, but long story short, that fell thru. Turns out I'm going to be stuck going out of town this week, and I should hopefully be back next weekend. I am ASE Certified (I've passed 5 ASE Tests, graduated from UTI in Chicago, IL, I do have over 1 more year work experience, but never had a chance to get the paperwork filed to be fully certified). I have my EPA 609 Refrigerant Handlers License. I have tools. I would love to get a job in a performance shop, but I realize thats not very realistic for somebody with only 1 years experience like I have in a dealership after I graduated college. I would prefer to avoid a dealer, but will go that route if absolutely neccessaary.

    I'd prefer a service tech position at someplace like an NTB, brakes, steering/suspension, etc. If anybody has any leads, or any idea's around the Alpharetta/Roswell area, please LMK, it would be HUGELY appreciated. Pay needs to be over $10 an hour. Unfortunately, I cannot pay my bills with less than that. Thanks everybody.

    EDIT: I Live in Alpharetta. I don't know where any of thes eplaces listed are, but I'm looking close to Alpharetta/Roswell.

    it was always up in the air but never less then 13.50. i know the Sears Auto center wants service writters and techs badly, at least the one in harbor way next to the Arbor Mall in douglasville . ALso i forgot to mention Pepboys went to the whole process also . but bad background again .

    No shit, I'd work for that. Thats $13.50 plus commission, as they work on a commissioned pay scale with a annual salary cap, as I remember, am I correct? Appreciate it. Thanks.
