Heh these dorms suck. Oh well.

I'm doing my Applied Service Management classes right now.. Things such as Accounting, Computers & Business Programs, Communications.

Fun fun..

Won't actually get to turn wrenches or learn technical stuff for another 3 months..

Other than that it's cool. Good thing I've got my cable internet otherwise I'd have a hard time finding other stuff to do.. Drinking is out of the picture, not worth getting busted and not worth the waste of time.. Need to study..

Just an update.. Later guys.

Well I'm doing well so far.. Just got a 100% on my computers test (second nature for me anyway)

My accounting class is going well, communications class, going well, just boring.

I'm definitely going for Jaguar or Mercedes.. How often is your dealership looking for people, Jeremy?

According to WyoTech, by taking the Applied Service Management course, and Automotive, it will give me an Associate's degree and make me eligible for Entry-Level management positions..

And of course, I plan to graduate top of the class, though I do have like 2,000 people to compete with.

Heres a hint . If the dealership you are going to work for is owned by Autonation, do not work there, its not worth the aggravation as their management is **** poor pathetic :-)

So no, I wouldnt go to my dealer again. Since we have been bought out, its been a joke and a half

Hey Jeremy, I have not asked anyone from the school yet but do you remember what you had to do, who you had to talk to, to get into the PACE program? (I'm going for the Mercedes-Benz ELITE program but I'm sure it's the same course of action)

Talk to a teacher, they will have info on the Merc. Benz , Jaguar and BMW programs. There are ones for Volvo and some other lines now too.

Gonne need near perfect attendance for them and grades too match and a teacher or two on your side always help, cause they will ask about you.
