[QUOTE="farmalltom, post: 2576891, member: 85017"]Well, after some consideration, I am holding off on this a bit, I think. While I am confident that I could/can make it happen and work out for me/us in the long run, I also don't want to be too hasty. We have one child still at home, although he has just one year of high school left. I'd rather not miss out on that if I don't have to... So.. I'm thinking it might be wise to first investigate a couple of other avenues first... First, I saw today that one of the railroads in my is looking for someone in my area with an electrical/mechanical background. Second, Deere is also bringing on some people and, while I have less interest in a production/assembly line type job, they do appear to have at least one opening for an "Experimental Mechanic". Last, if nothing else, a local freight company has offered me a P&D position. It's not really what I was initially hoping for but... It would, at least, provide me with driving experience... :/[/QUOTE]
