JDM1983 28 Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) Master degree in Mechanical Engineering, later went on to become Chartered. Education helps you through the door; hard work, common sense and not being a complete cunt seems to be more important thereafter Edited September 29, 2019 by JDM1983 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XFS 70 Posted September 30, 2019 I was quite clever and always had good grades but I hated school and left when I was 15 with no qualifications. Started messing around with cars when I was 12/13 and have been dipping in and out of the trade ever since. I started of working on a farm and then got a fairly responsible public service related job and gained professional qualifications to degree level. From the age of 28 I have owned various businesses and I am currently winding up a photography career to concentrate on the motor trade full time. It’s what I promised myself as my wind down towards death or retirement...whichever comes first ...lol 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
