Automotive Repair graduate Nicholas Heath flew back to Massachusetts for his commencement on August 22. He works now in New Port Richey, Florida in the service department of a GMC Dealership. He just earned a two-dollar raise after less than six months on the job. Prior to enrolling at Westover Job Corps Center, he was “switching from house to house” with a job at Burger King, unable to pay rent. This was tough as he was having medical challenges. His aunt told him about Job Corps. “Now I have insurance, a 401-K and life insurance and I just bought a car!” said Heath with a smile. We asked him, “Was there a moment where you realized you were doing something you had learned at Westover?” “Yes I have those moments all the time. Whenever I talk with our customers I remember Customer Service in Ms. Terrell’s class. I make them feel comfortable as I explain things. ”
