    So I have a regular 9-5 type job, and was recently offered to try something new.

    Its working a for a nice Valet service. I actually did the photoshoot for the guy's NSX a while back. This is by no means replacing my normal job, that pays great, but I thought this would be a cool way to get out of the cubicle and run around and make a few dollars extra to put in my pocket for the weekends.


    But im not sure exactly what to expect as far as tips, amount of work, etc. Any info would be cool!

    Better be comfortable driving tons of cars into very small spots, getting soaked in the rain and getting crappy tips. But you do get to drive fun cars every once in a while, albeit, only 30 feet.

    Not a bad idea if was to take on a second job that would be good choice in my book.

    Yeah, most hotel Valets have got the life though. Parking deck to park the cars in, covered area to valet from. Guess it all really depends on where you valet at.

    I think something like 90% of all drivers consider themselves above average. ;)

    It isnt whether or not you are a good driver, it is whether or not you are a great parker :p
