Hi all,
not sure this is the right place for this this, but sure the mods will shift if need be
Ok, 34 years in the bodywork game and a the trade is just not what it used to be to add to my diminishing faith in the trade I just got laid off for the second time this year on Friday! nice xmas present eh? and I have really had enough of working for main dealers and their outlets.
So, I had an idea back in June when I got laid off first and started putting things in place, this idea has now been thrust to the fore due to my current situation, and a little earlier than I planned. I am going to be venturing out on my own and offering a 'mobile welding service' for all classic marques of VW, buses, bugs etc, and I am also in the process of securing premises for the more time consuming jobs. The whole idea of earning a living working within the VW scene and doing something I have a passion for would be a dream come true. Not to mention the social side in meeting people with the same passion and sharing it with them.
Of course this is all in its infancy but gathering speed. My son is finishing the website and company logo etc, details of which I will post soon.
For now I am testing the water to see what reaction I get and to see what might be forthcoming. I am based in Surrey and looking to cover the South east/west area initially but will be willing to travel depending on a planned workload.
Like I said this has not the way I planned to get started but circumstances now dictate. I can be contacted on MARK 07982 237196 and emailed at [email protected]
