    I go to school and work for our family's heating company. I do everything from painting to installations and removals of oil and propane tanks and furnaces and boilers. We generate a lot of company scrap but when doing installations or removals employees are allowed to keep copper scraps and I get to pick things from the dumpster to break down for metals like copper and brass. We also own a chain of car washes and I've been doing lots of work on that side of the business learning the mechanics. About 6 months ago one of our washes caught fire. We are a few weeks away from opening and I've been hauling a lot of scrap out from there and hauling the new equipment in. I also collect and rebuild pallets.
