New addition to the forum

Hi everyone. My name is Colin and I'm from the Vancouver lower mainland in British Columbia Canada. I've been a mechanic for http://www.west-bay.com for 7 years and have since moved to a different outfit. I made a change to broaden my experience and before my 3 months was up at my new place, I was dismissed due to lack of experience. So I'm told.
I hope to be able to contribute here as well as learn more. Who knows, maybe even find new employment.

The last place that fired me was Montgomery Wards. The resulting bad karma killed a 100 year old company. In your face, monkey ward! I'm still standing. Yeah, revenge is a dish best served cold. Yeah, there's a Walmart on top of your ashes. Go ahead, fire me, I was looking for a job when I found this one.

Thanks all. To answer your question Mike, I've done all kinds of installations from stainless deck hardware to engines. I was a commisioner for 2 years at West Bay so I had my hand in everything.
