Due to the whole COVID thing and the economy in the toilet the price of oil dropped through the floor and with it a few thousand jobs... mine included. No worries, all good here I was thinking I would take some time to work on the truck and/or house. Well fate works in mysterious ways, I am working again, for now at the hot rod shop. Yup, you are looking at the newest shop gopher, sand blaster ( nasty, dirty work ) and body prep work, oh and training painter! How cool is that? So how this came about is like this. The previous body person left to self isolate when the whole COVID thing started to get heavy. Having lung issues and being prone to pneumonia self isolation was a good choice. After 2 months though, the shop needed them back and while they initially agreed to return, when the time came they ultimately decided to not return. So in the interim I am filling the void. I get to learn the body work side which will save me money later and I get paid to learn! I am really enjoying the work, though I am too tired now to work a full day and then work on my truck. So it is a Good thing this is temporary. Psst, don’t tell anyone but I worked on a 1950 Dodge today, I felt so dirty. Tomorrow I get to spray it in epoxy primer.
I will post some pictures soon. Stay safe, stay sane. Steve
