This sounds like a wonderful opportunity, but wages no longer match the cost of living. Good Luck!

Thanks to Eric Long for pointing out that there are many great mechanics out there who do not have any type of “certification”. So I’ve revised the post to say “Experienced” and REI does provide certification through Barnett’s. If you are looking to come and work for a great company with great benefits (even for part timers) please see below.
