well some may know, others may not,

I quit my job working in logistics... it became...frustratingly stupid and I hated going to work.

Found a new job at Griots Garage... they kick ****.....

Today was the first day of what I hope is a long stay there! I still cant believe I got paid to wash and wax and play with my car all day!!!!

 

lucky! I'm glad you found a job that you can enjoy, if only everyone could be so lucky

congrats.

 

They've got great stuff. I used to get their catalog.
Do you get an employee discount?
How about a SL discount?

 

Well, looks like i will have to trade Dustin cars one day so he can detail mine for me, lol.

 

Congrats, Dustin! I got the impressions they're cool folks. I've gotta confess a wee twinge of envy.

 

Various Griots products were what I used to use on my Volvos. Good solid products that I knew I could depend on.

Great stuff!

Tom

 

Nice, Dustin! We expect your xA to now virtually clean itself as it is driving down the highway. =D

So is that your official job? Super-mega car detailing genius? hehe

 

well I'm 2 days into detailing school which means I'm two full days into a three day detail on my car...

she shure is purdy.... so far.... ;)

 

Lemme know when you learn to Teflon coat 'em so everything just rinses off...

I use Griots products on my tC. I have a dark color so the paste wax works best for me. And Speed Shine that is some awesome stuff. Good luck with the new job! Let us know if we get any sort of Scion or Scionlife discounts. =)

 

congrates on the new job now i have to take mine down there again and have you work on it.

 

Their paste wax did the best in my wax test

 

Congrats Dustin, It is fun to find something that you love. I am glad to hear that you found that, everyone deserves that opportunity

 

congrats on the new job...

Oh man - coffee and detailing. It's a good thing they're about an hour's drive from here.

 

Griots will soon be offering full detail services but the rates have yet to be determined. As far as in the mean time, I have my business licence again so I will be able to take care of you and I know Justin McDonald also does it for a great rate and uses all Griots products.
