My name is Erik. I grew up here and there fixing my first car a 79 Ford Thunderbird, which I loved, before the journal bearings started going out. Got into the Navy as nd ordnance guy. I last spent half my Naval career working on F/A-18 E & F variants. This is where I got my first handle at technical schematics, multiplex systems for weapons communicatiins, and using multimeter/ test sets. I loved it. I attended UTI in Sacramento after seperating from the military. Got my feet wet and coukd only handle 9 months of loser teens out of high school. I got my first automotive job with Firestone in California. It was awesome because it was hourly and sucked for learning and making money because it was hourly. Fast foward two years and I have three ASE certs and work in Florida flat rate where I make decent money. Still learning and a lot of tthat hasbto do with you Eric mainly and all the other poor souls who did it first on Youtube showing us how to do stuff without paying crazy labor to get it fixed. It also gave me more confidence to go further since Study guides and one time classroom hand on proficiency is not enough to get it right and get that experience needed.
