Over 15 years in the Air Force--Air Transportation--kind of like FedEx, but with much bigger packages. Like '57HHR, also an Airdrop Rigger--if you want your HHR dropped out of an airplane, we can hook you up...lol. Currently stationed in Arkansas. Also been stationed in California, Okinawa and Delaware. Best part of my job used to be the travel--been to Germany, Saudi, Guam, Phillipines, Thailand, Australia, Belgium and Korea. Since 9/11, it's only been Qatar and Iraq.

I'll tell you one thing, if i could work anywhere I would work at the GM Design Plant and use this site as a template.

There would already be a HHR SS,
Yellow HHRs would be available,
Suburban SS,
LS6 and rear wheel drive HHRs,
and so much more.

Based on your posts here, you wouldn't last a week. But, you can always apply, if you have the credentials. The custodial jobs are out-sourced to non GM entities. Don't get your shorts in abunch, I'm just kidding..

Oh, and there is also a design studio in California.

Hey, that's about where my wife wants to *get* to. GM is paying for her to get a Master's in Auto Design, and I guess in her class they mentioned the whole competitor acquisition thing. Small world.

Oh, as far as I go, not sure whether working at CARQUEST counts as automotive or retail, so opted for auto.

Okay, so which HHR are *you?* I've seen about six out by Plant 1 when I've had to deliver stuff to my wife's car.
