I am so proud I could burst. My eldest grandchild, Joshua has been accepted for an apprenticeship with Ford motors. Many of you will remember that Joshua has not had it easy after his terrible motor bike accident more than two years ago. We are all so delighted.

Sarah this is great news. What trade will he be involved with. Although we are sugarcane farmers now my hubby did an apprenticeship in panel beating. Worked with that trade for 10 years. Now he can put his hand to anything mechanical and still uses his trade with our hobby, that is restoring old cars and enjoying driving them. Hugs Marg

He will basically learn how do become a mechanic. His dream was to work for Ford.

This is wonderful news to hear about Josh Sarah. Crow all you want to. I have Grandsons and know what it'slike to be proud of them. Joshua has had a hard time but he is a go get'er and will do will I am sure. Keep keeing us informed about how he is doing. Alittle Hiatory. My \grand father worked for Henry Ford when he started producing cars. Grand father was in WWI. At Ford he was doing well back in the days when shirts were a dime. I think he made a little over a dollar a day. He bought stock in Ford through the yrs and was still drawing dividends on some of the stock when he was in his 80s. He later sold all his stock and bought land in Fl. He's been gone over 30 yrs but was quite a character/Lillian

We have a 1928 A Model ford (restored twice, that is how much we use it). You could say we are "Ford" people.

It sounds great, but I'm not sure what apprenticeship means ? Is this a sort of training in the company itselves ?
