Help Me Out Please by Fanparker: 1:41pm On Jul 15, 2023
Hi everyone… I need your advice on this
I’m a fresh graduate from mech engr dept, still waiting for nysc tho. I want to learn practically about my course (automobile, car repair and maintenance) before I go for service in few months. I’m left with 3 options
Option 1: stay in my house (father house) learn work as an apprentice at a place not far to my house. It’s trekable . The place is a road side mechanic place. They work there but not majorly on big cars and brands. (You know typical road side mechanic). Just few mechanic tools, no scanning machines e.t.c like an auto shop
Feeding is sorted since I’ll be eating at my house and cost of transport is excluded since I’ll be trekking.

Option 2: my aunt said she has someone who’s a mechanic and receive a lot of work that I should come to her place. It’s a 2- room and have lives with her family. Family of 5 including teenage daughters. It’s far from my place, I put into consideration (cost of transport if I want to go home each week, my feeding also cuz it’ll solely be on my neck).. Accommodation isn’t convinient also.. I haven’t really confirmed the type of work the man does, maybe respraying or repairs.

Option 3: still staying at my aunt place, I know a man personally ( the CEO of the company) receive a lot of work, repairs on different car brands, has a big covered workshop.. I’ve worked there when I was in my year 2, it’s a good place to learn which I grasp quickly. I squatted with a family friend then but they relocated
It’s just like an auto shop. If I’ll have to choose this, I’ll still have to transport myself to and fro from my aunt place to the workshop (800 daily) and I’m not going to get paid just tips which is rare.

Now I don’t know the one I’ll go for.. I’ve thought of it and haven’t concluded yet
N:B I’ll be the one to cater for my bills myself mostly
( feeding,transport) .. it’s on me

lipsrsealedMechanical engineering is not for car mechanics. Bench fittings, components fabrication, MiG/TiG welding, Turning are the practical to your course. Automotive engineering is what you want to learn like this.
