Job to do with VW's

Whats up guys and gals. I must say it has been ages since I last posted on here
I had my fair share on
over the last year, and a half and being at school and trying to work for cash so that I could work on your car is a fairly tricky job... anyway I'm back
To cut it short, I'm looking for a job. I know this is not "job finder SA" so if anyone is unhappy with this post, pm me and I will delete it. I, as anyone who recognizes me could have guessed, I love VW's and have found a recent interest in computer coding/ web design (over the last 2 or 3 months). If anyone hears or knows of anything that involves either, I will be forever in your debt (+ a case of beer). I will move wherever I need to, and do the dirtiest of all dirty jobs as long as there is some kind of possibility of promotion, and it involves cars or computers and I can earn enough $$$ to pay rent
If you know of any other places ie. oil rig work, I am open to any and all suggestions.
Ps. I'm 19 have a matric with maths and Sci etc. Reason I'm not studying is because of plans changing at the last minute, and honestly I'm tried of not working...
Cheers
Richard

Howzit Richard - yes your absence has been noticed
Sorry to hear about your
during the year, but don't despair - your situation WILL change, your attitude and approach to life is positive and you are still young - a MAJOR advantage.
And don't delete or edit your post, I hope someone can help - are you still in the Eastern Cape - willing to relocate, etc, etc, etc ?
Cheers

Whats up dude
glad to see the friendly vib is still around
Ya I'm still in the Eastern Cape and willing to go anywhere worth while, which is pretty much anywhere
I'm going to study part time as soon as I sort out a few other more important things.

Welcome back, wondered what happened to you.
Hope all else is fine, with you and will have a look out if there is something I can find for you
Maybe give Splitbusaholic a call, think he is full up with guys, but you never know, being VW mad may help.
Later.
Herman

Thanks Herman, everything is good on my side and I hope its the same for you? I have been helped by a fellow forum member but I'm not going to jinx it until I have sorted everything out.
I thought making this post was a dumb idea, but if all goes well it might be the best thing Iv done in a while
This forum is the best, I have no idea what I was doing not staying in contact... but I think you guys will be hearing a lot from me again over the next while

So it looks like Junior will be up this way in a few weeks time to try out in my shop - hopefully if his things work out he can also take the one spot I still have on the course I am running 12-14 July. Nothing like diving in boots and all!
Looking forward to meeting you Richard!

Cheers Splitfan!
While many people say they would love to do it, I am VERY selective of who I take on. Even then I have been through quite a few guys who didn't cut it for one reason or another. Not trying to be a dick or anything, but the reality is most people simply aren't cut out for the type of work I do.
It is as much (maybe more) about attitude as aptitude. And understanding that it isn't like you see on TV....
But given what I have seen of what Richard has done with limited resources, I'm looking forward to seeing how it all works out.
