I was checking up on my car today at Germain BMW of Naples, because, among other things, the bluetooth module and front driver side shock are being replaced. I check up on the car today, and they were having trouble programming the new module and were still programming the car, pretty cool...snapped a few pics...anyway...I talked to the guy in the washing/detailing department and picked up a job application...as soon as school ends, I am going to start working (IF I get hired ) at the dealership detailing department and cleaning your your guys' cars

1. Why is that crap leaning up against your rear bumper?

2. What is that battery cable doing leaning on your front fender?


I detailed cars at a lincoln dealership when I was 17. I really enjoyed it. I would prep cars for the showroom, delivery, and weekend events as well as do general washes on cars on the lot. I made $10 an hour, which was a lot for a 17 year old highschool student in 1999-2000. I ended up doing a lot of lot work and taking paper work to the DMV and all that boring stuff, but i learned a lot about detailing. That is where I learned to wheel a black car. Only destroyed half of a black navigator while learning. I also learned very quickly how to polish to hide swirls (in an attmept to save my job!)

You will have fun working on a BMW lot. Good Luck!

Haha lol Your the second person today to tell me they worked at a Lincoln dealer today lol...Rogerj basically had the same exact job that you had lol

Can't wait to start working there, I am pretty decent with paint correction so I don't think I'll be messing up too many rides

There's another guy there that does wheel curb rash repairs and does an insanely good job, FLAWLESS. wonder how long it takes to learn that...
