Anyone from Glendale Heights (Chicago Area)?

I got accepted to a Mercedes Benz training program in Glendale Heights, so I'll be going there from Socal this June. Kind of sucks because I'm leaving my FD behind sitting in the garage for 4 months and I won't have a car, and won't know anyone. Hopefully I can find a job within walking distance from my apartment. So is anyone here from Glendale Heights, or close?

i used to live in glendale heights. i lived at stonegate, right next to UTI. you will enjoy it. its a ton of fun. depending on where you live though, theres not a lot of jobs in walking distance. but you should go get a job at glendale nissan. that is the coolest place i have ever worked at.

I will definitely look them up. It might be hard with no tools and funky hours, but I'd lube tech it for sure. Are you a UTI graduate? I am in my last phase right now. Are you working as a tech right now?

I'll update the thread for sure when I arrive. If someone would be willing to pick me up for the meets, I'd buy them lunch and a beer . I'm going to miss my car so much.

As long as the wife doesn't want to go, I could pick you up. Hope you don't mind driving fast.

Awesome. If I can get a part time job, then I think I'm going to buy a bike for transportation if I can afford it. Any of you guys ride?

Damn that's harsh. I commute about 100 miles a day between work and school, luckily I have a commuter civic. Is Benz Elite actually at your campus? I am going to try to get a job at a Jiffy Lube or something so I can afford a bike while I'm out there.

HA. I currently attend the FORD FACT program @ UTI in Glendale Heights, and I live about 30 miles south. I have three weeks left there, but if anybody goes to UTI and has a 7, hit me up, I haven't seen any 7's there since july of '06.
