Hi despite what is happening today in my family, I have some exciting news to share. My son came upstairs to my room last night and told me that the dealership where he is working has offered him an apprentice position when he graduates at the end of the summer. They would like him to stay with Mercedes Benz and work for them permanently. This is his dream position and exactly where he wants to be. They said he could potentially be moved to Audi, BMW or Volkswagen but the service manager likes what he has done so far and thus offered him a position. There are several other guys waiting for an apprentice position there as it is and to be offered one before graduation is pretty exciting.
My son, being part Japanese and all and has to humble himself because of this, wouldn't show any emotion when he was telling me this, but inside I am sure he was bursting with pride. I am so happy for him! I can't say I am exactly surprised as he works very hard, is easy to get along with and his grades-well-he is at the top of his class. He holds the #1 seat. I am sure they have talked to his instructors and have told him about DS. I am just so happy for him!
Thanks for letting me share!

Congratulations! As I wait for my oldest to make decisions I can imagine your joy! I am pretty relieved as he would come home with a worried look on his face sometimes and tell us "I doubt they are going to keep after graduation and we just nodded our heads and said it would all work out. He stresses over every little thing. He also worked for Honda at his last co-op term and they were disappointed that he wasn't coming back. This is why I said I wasn't that surprised but I was still beaming with joy for him! |

Good for him, you should be proud.
My BIL worked for Mercedes for many years and built a good career there. He recently transferred to Porsche.
