I used to be in that situation and would declare myself "Employee of the Month" and then take the day off. Now I'm just a full time slacker.
BTW, there is a lot to be said for a mechanically sound, cosmetically challenged 914.

So your going down the 'Rat Rod' path and won't be afraid to use the closest, tightest parking spaces?

I said that to the company do I continue?,how much work to keep in compliance with insurance and accident cover ?,and just idoits in my workplace that were to stupid to be safe on the highest risk industry in the world.
Pulled the pin and left,do consulting work still but not chasing work from them.
Good on you go for it

If you have the matching front CA plate you could sell those on eBay or on here to a CA owner.

Jack of Jack's Auto is a guy that gave me a shot when I was starting out doing autobody, I was young and didn't know much but I guess he saw something, I always liked his sign and he's still at it
