Default Jobs

Hey

I've started looking for a new job lately, and I was wondering if auto shops required someone to be 18 before hiring. I know dealerships do, but do auto body shops, and repair shops go by this too? I have some friends who work for dealerships, in repairs, but they got their jobs through Monroe tech(school program). I want to find a job I would enjoy doing and am just wondering if anyone on this board knows the answer?

o, and I'm 17 right now, 18 in October.

thanks

I might be mistaken, Carmax, and another dealership had said 18 though.

haha "Shop Bitch", but ya that'd be fine with me. anythings better than clothing retail.

I'm planning on taking some classes, because I've worked on my old 82' bronco (i used to have) numerous times, but it's far from a 2000+ car.

I know at gas stations you only have to be 16. Most of the time if you get hired at a gas station you will just do all the shit like trash and cleaning and later one oil chages and mounting tires.
