One has a regular red golf, the other has a red Jetta GLI, on the end (which could be a regular Jetta, but close enough).

I know, it's also a regular Jetta. I knew you meant well, just felt like attempting to prove somebody wrong.

I wouldn't mind another detailing job, but with an accident record along with a ticket, that's not happening anytime soon.

Nice. I too work for VW in a cold weather climate. Volkswagen of Duluth (MN). Pros of the job: Getting to drive cars you wouldn't otherwise drive. Cons: Winter.....

I did a detailing job before this as well, I wasn't treated like an employee, and only got 8 hours a week, so I quit. My boss knows exactly what shop I worked at, since he lives in the same part of town as I do.

Hey man, congrats! Still going to be getting a Mazda with the big Blitzkrieg bucks you're going to be making, or has that ship sailed?

Having a passion for cars is an asset I'd say, but otherwise not much, it's a good starting position.

I see, this winter I'm hoping to get a snowboard instructing thing done, and maybe see if I can teach a bit at the local hills, but being around cars in general would be absolutely perfect for something part time, I've been thinking about getting a job for a while now, need to actually act on it lol. (I'm in grade 12, idk bout you)

At least in the meantime, I'll be Blitzkriegin' with my Brother's Jetta until I pick the Zoomer up

Act on it. I couldn't work for a couple years due to a seizure, I sat around quite a bit in Grade 12 because of it.

Right on! Good boss right there! I've never had a chill boss in a car dealership so I'm guessing its harder to come by than a stock 240SX.

Cool. It's better when you enjoy it the work your doing.

I enjoy doing it but couldn't do it again as a job as many dealerships don't appreciate the work needed and done (despite offers). I've a Mk2 Focus TDCi tomorrow which I'm looking forward to getting my hands on again.
