The best thing to do is help him get a work VISA. To do that, we need a MB dealership or private MB (or similar) shop to agree to hire and "sponsor" him. To do that, we need a willing employer and we need Sleepwalker's Resume`. This is project a good headhunter could help with.

WE could contact our local shops and dealerships. It would be easier to market him with a resume' in hand. Then, all we need is his *** here! That's the easy part with all the pledges our board members have offered.

I can't think of a better gift then to help a family achieve it's financial dreams. He has been most generous with us and I am willing to take what steps I can.

Another issue I see is housing, if I were on my own Sleepwalker could stay with me.

You just need financial backing, business acumen, Sleepwalker, customers, tools, facilities, time...lots of time.

You know what would be fantastic... is offering realistic rates instead of these rippoffs mercedes mechanics charge you. [:@]

So BWI would be his destination, housing is covered, expenses I'm assuming everyone could pitch in. Airmiles are covered. Is it just SleepWalker coming or the whole fam?

Hey Sleepwalker!

It's good to hear from you, and to at least know that you're alright! This forum has missed you greatly, but we also know that "you have to handle your business, and do what you have to do...." Hope things better as you go along. As well, I hope your family is alright and wish them well. Others have made statements which hopefully you may want to give serious thought, as it pertains to your geographical location. Well, take care. Looking for your posts.

thank you BatonRouge.

i am not very familiar on how to get there, but i think i need something like a sponsor or workplace?

the visa is not easy to get because the interview is quite strict. from that point, we can proceed.
