Morning world 🌍
How's your day looking?
Ok, as discussed, here’s the start of my journey…
My first proper job was as an apprentice mechanic with Porsche. This photo is a fresh-faced, floppy-haired version of me sitting in a Porsche 962 Le Mans race car. Looking back, I don’t think I realised at the time just how lucky I was to be surrounded by some of the most incredible cars ever built.
I spent around 7 years on the tools, learning my trade and working on some truly special machinery. I loved the job, but eventually I got itchy feet and wanted to see something other than the same four walls every day.
That decision set me off on the path that eventually led me into transport and trucking, but we'll continue that tomorrow …
And yes, if the lottery numbers ever come in, a Porsche will be the first thing on the shopping list! 😎
What was your very first job, and did it lead you to where you are now, or take you somewhere completely different? 🚛🏎️👇
