I am a full time student. I detail cars part time during the summer months, and during weekends in the warmer months when school is slow enough that I can detail (so basically, just during summers, with a few exceptions haha). I just accepted a position as host of a local high-end restaurant for at least the remainder of this semester and the summer, though, so I already feel my detailing time going down the drain. I plan on owning my own business some day (though I'd love to detail cars, I'm hoping to get into the sustainable energy business...I'd love to work with electric cars or the electric car power stations in some way; helping to revolutionize the auto industry by making cars like the Tesla model S and nissan leaf and/or the infrastructure that goes along with them more practical, and thus, more prevalent) We'll see where life takes me as far as a career goes, though. This thread has been very interesting to read, people on this forum have so many different professions!
