Gen Y Speaks: I turned my back on a cushy job with the family business, as I preferred to get my hands dirty

I’ve tried hard to become a better student, but academic excellence simply eluded me.

It goes without saying that my parents were worried about my future, but at least there was a safety net for me. There was certainly plenty to think about as I still had many lingering doubts. For one, my parents reminded me that I had a duty to continue the family business. I signed up to become a private hire vehicle driver. It gave me the flexibility and autonomy that I sought for in a job, plus the fact that I get to operate and control a car for hours on the road, which I enjoyed.

But the earnings allowed me to purchase my first car, a Renault Megane Red Bull Edition, which led me towards a semi-obsession of learning how to improve and maintain cars. My hard work paid off when I received the SR Nathan Book Prize Award, which is awarded annually to the top 25 performing trainees from ITE.
