Vietnamese mechanic - Page 2

Here in SO California 40 years ago the Mexicans drove old cars. I would as the questions where do Mexicans park? The answer. "Where ever they broke down." Now no one speaks English. CA would be republican if all the illegals didn't vote. We need federal voter ID cards. If you are going to live here learn English. You will never find success if you don't. I am not a racist. I am half Jew and half German and get up fighting with myself every morning. I was adopted. My middle name is Christian. Minorities don't have anything up on me. LOL

500,

Don't feel bad... I know a very good Vietnamese mechanic that is honest and skillful.

You just got the wrong Vietnamese mechanic.

And yes, I give you credit for not hiring a nog to work on your truck.

He almost cried when I made him refund the $250.

I saw a guy on youtube trying Vietnamese Pho soup for the first time.

He said it looked like a clogged toilet.

The reason you see few non white mechanics is because to be a good mechanic it takes intelligence and hard work. These traits are far and few between in non whites. The Mexicans may work hard but just do not have the smarts. I good mechanic can pull $100,000.00 annual.

My little brother's brother-in-law is a Vietnamese mechanic. I hear he's a good one, but that's about all he's good at.

How mechanically gifted is your oldest chitlin? You could talk him thru the manual labor part of the job like my dad did with me.

He could do it but he is super busy with his academic work and swim team. 20 hours per week on swim team, plus he is taking a heavy course load that will earn him significant college credits although he is only a junior:

chem 1.5 college semester credits this year (pace is 3/4 that of college course)
bio 1.5 college semester credits this year
math 1.5 "
english 1.0 college semester credits (pace is 1/2 that of college course so a year long course covers 1 college semester)
US history 1.0 "
statistics 1.0 "
yoga (good for stretching after all his strength training and the school would not just let him have a study hall in this time slot).
___________
7.5 college semester credits over a high school year, which is a rate of 3.75 college semester credits per high school semester. Most college students take 4 courses per semester, which puts his pace at just slightly slower than a college pace although he is a junior in high school.

To get the credit on the 1.5's, he has to do another 1.5 of each next year. This will give him 16 college semester course credits. At a rate of 4 college courses per semester, that is 2 years of credit. However, it does not mean he will finish college 2 years early.

So he studies till midnight every night and gets up at 5 or 6 am depending on the day.

Maybe I can hold off until spring and have him do it, or walk his 12 year old brother through it. At age 11, his brother changed brakes all around on my Toyota Tundra and installed a complete new front bumper set (about 100 pieces including the little plastic clips and screws of very size and shape).
