    Another vote for heavy equipment. Operate cool stuff, get paid by the hour and collect your benefits. Trucking just isn't fun any more. Too many crazies on the road, too many idiots at the trucking companies, and too little compensation for the amount of time given. If I could find a job that paid as well close to home, I'd jump in a New York minute.

    Do tell about this heavy equipment operator course....?

    I’ve had a pretty good run with trucking, and want to take any opportunities I might have to broaden my horizons. While I have experience operating various equipment...having an official course under my belt might be good, as well as paving the way for me to get into a mechanic position.

    Go crane. Get on with one of the big outfits; Mammoet, Sterling, etc. Guys I worked with made very serious coin.
