In Shock since Dec 18 – Got a Job, Start Monday

Since then it’s been a lot of pacing, and sitting quietly like above, daydreaming. Somehow the world’s best-suited job just fell on my LinkedIn.

Remember when I gave myself 4 months, from quitting the paper to finding new revenue? Skin of my teeth, I was in the final week when I shook hands… and it’s like a real job guys, physical real business, and the pay is amazing.

KeriBlog can continue reviewing cars with journalist integrity, because it’s not an auto-manufactuerer… ready?…

Dents. I’m now in the dent business guys!

How it works: a car has a dent > my company removes it > accept payment > the end

Awesomely there is no social media anything,
I do NOT have to Tweet about the dent.

I work in a building that has a parking lot filled with… 15,000 cars!

Here we go deeper into the belly of the auto industry…

I have a giant post drafted about the job, but am having trouble focusing these days… from initial contact to landing the job was fast, and in 10 days I flipped my life upside down. That’s why my blog has been dark, sorry.

I start on Monday, the job requires a lot of driving OKAY, comes with a car OKAY AGAIN, I’m now “business casual” those are new clothes in the photos!, and not sure how I got so lucky guys, but 2016 just got real exciting.

How Many Doors on a Hyundai Veloster?

How many do you see? Answer is at bottom.

The rear hatch counts as 1.

Nice how the exterior colour carries into the interior, eh.

2016 Hyundai Veloster Rally Edition

1.6L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine
6-speed manual transmission
201 hp & 195 lb-ft of torque

Starting at $27,199

***

So, how many doors?

It’s a trick question.

Answer = 4.

The rear driver’s side door is fake!

Neat eh.

The backseat is accesible ONLY from the passenger side. I like it – means the driver’s seat never requires adjustment.

PS – don’t know why, but there’s something about Hyundai and game posts – here’s a good one.

 

 

 

How I Submitted my Taxes

In a premium Honda ad spec ha. Auto for life.

Handed over during my accountant and my annual end-of-year lunch. Every year I say the same thing, “THIS is the year the blog pays off, I just know it.”  And he smiles and says something encouraging, even though every year I’m wrong.

Except this time… after all these years, this one I’m right.
