    Welcome!!

    I agree with this being a rewarding trade. However you will have days that you will beat your head against a wall and wonder why you can't have a real job. So be prepared.

    The more experience you gain the fewer of those days you will have.

    It has to be the most rewarding career. There's so much to learn and it's always changing.

    If you're going to be a tech, take the time to find out why something failed rather than just being a parts changer.

    I've never gone to "work" for 35 years. I still can't get enough. I'm on to a "static pressure measuring" kick now.

    I was taught by people that cared about airflow (duct design). You'll find some really sh*t jobs out there.

    I think it's a big opportunity for us. I wish you well.
