"Macca's" coffee tastes like shit, based on my experience, which is about 4 years removed from my last experience. I'm pretty sure that it hasn't improved. "Mechanic's helper" would be someone who got to do all the lying on the ground getting filthy from oil and dirt while working on a vehicle. Your job would have been termed "Pump Block Salesman" here in the US. I did that for some time after I exited the Navy while at uni. I hired in, and when the boss discovered that I knew more than him about things mechanical, I was working in the repair bay, with only minimal time on the pump block, when business was slow. By the time I graduated uni, I was state-licensed for brakes, lamps and SMOG repair and inspection, and certified for engine tune-up and repair, brake repair, air conditioning service, and front end repair and alignment. I've probably missed something in there. I made that guy a ton of money in the time I worked there. I made a ton, myself. I could work Saturdays and Sundays, and summers, to support myself while at uni. I had the GI Bill from my time in the Navy, so while I wasn't swimming in dough, I was able to support myself and my wife (we met as we were both juniors) and myself.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
