Default Re: ASE sellout in USA

ASE of course. Lincoln tech cost 30k to enroll I've been told by a few sources. Better job is selling the program to kids, you can make some big bucks enrolling them.
Back to ASE.
If you sign up and need not speak to anyone, no problem. But I am supposed to re-cert Friday and needed to reschedule. Thatis where the problems begin. Prometric bought them out maybe? They did not know what ASE is, oh the car thingy after a minute of semi deep thought, lol.
I was offered a job at Lincoln tech as an instructor. I turned it down. 20 hours which does not add up for me, poor hours to commute to Queens. Needed full time, they offered p/t 5-9, try getting to NYC in rush hourafter a full time gig, nfg. They are still looking.
Not to putit down, they have some real good kids come outof the program as does Toyota T Ten for many of them. Many do not last after they see what they need to buy to work.
Auto industry is in a tough time, lots of $$$ spent by techs in tools, no pensions often, small weekly guaruntees in private sector and dealerships.
