I was courting the owner of the company's daughter. I didn't get preferential treatment, but I did 'click' with Jimmy, the owner. The company expanded and I progressed to Head Fitter. I organise the day to day running of the place, take calls from customers, price jobs and work on the computer, which I helped set up. But I still do a lot of fitting, which I really enjoy.
Every job is a challenge.
But you have to know what you're doing because every vehicle is different. It's not a job you can just walk into, you have to be properly trained. If you're working on a car and the phone's ringing and a customer needs attention, it puts you on the edge, where I like to be. I enjoy dealing with customers too. They're often quite upset if they've had their windscreen broken or their car broken into.
