They've all probably been burnin rod for 20 to 30 years... and they still have to hustle to get the good jobs! Not trying to discourage you, but the one post was correct... If all you plan to do is burn a little rod... be prepared to make just over minimum wage! (ask me how I know... been there/done that!)
HTH, Regards, DL
