Congratulations. Are you working for a Volkswagen dealer, or a workshop that specialises in VW's?

CONGRATULATIONS apprenticeships are quite often not considered because people quite often only consider the immediate future, I made that mistake & by the time you realise, it is too late to do one, no matter what you do later it is always good to have a trade to fall back on 🙂🙂

Too right Crashman

i am an electrician by trade - never worked as one though. Then again best thing i ever did to get me into Mech Services work.
trade knowledge is great.

there is going to be a big shortage of good hands on qualified people (already is!) and people that hack it out are going to command top $$$ :bounce

I imagine like alot of workshop that there will probably be some sort of initiation ceremony like making you continually drive around the block in a Korean made 4 cylinder car until you burst into tears!! Hehe well done and grats on the new job 🙂
