As a mechanic with a Bachelor's degree from a univ known for trades I can tell him to be prepared to work hard for the rest of his life! I am now 50 and just getting by. A lot of industry has evolved into the "two tiered" system with a low pay "labor" class and a high pay, "salaried class". This is fine but most do NOT allow for advancement of the lower. I will NEVER be rich! I used to like what I do now I hate it and I'm too old to switch. I could have done anything with my life-engineer, computers, you name it. Heck, fixing stuff is the same whether its pc's, diagrams, even humans. I've watched this career debate on here several times and believe me, Its all about money!! Cuz, at the end of the day, if you can't afford life then you aren't very far ahead. I started out doing good, then okay, and now just getting by. My wages are maxed out. I will have to work til I'm 70. If you think its all relevant, your're right. I have a barn with 16 tractors in it and can't afford to restore one of em! My point? Given achoice, always choose the money! Because when your friends are, fishin, camping, boating, snowmobiling, etc, you'll be workin overtime to "just get by". Oh. I'm not a veteran but I have NEVERRR heard of a recruiter NOTTT lying!
