I’m a banker during the day. I manage a branch, and generally enjoy it. I’m not any good at playing politics, so that has hurt me in the past, but I do enjoy what I do, especially my interactions with small business owners and helping them achieve their dreams.

Apparently business is a boomin’! lkrfletcher this is going to sound stupid but they did some cad drawings for my house and they colorized a bunch of stuff, it looked like the world or dungeon maps from old school video games like metroid!

wdaly i was on the local fire dept for 7 years, firefighter 1, 2 and MPO. As well as some other certifications. I miss it, life just got too busy having to have 2 jobs to make ends meet. I made the sacrifice to resign so someone else could give the time it takes for a position like that.
twilliams I enjoyed it a bunch. Worked with a great bunch of people in a great community. They sorted us well. Just got to be time to let the younger guys run with it.

jpurol I’m in the Ada Oklahoma plant. I’m here now just waiting for 6am. What state are you in.
cdavis How is Ada doing these days? I have not been there in well over 20 years. Was on assignment there for about a month during the winter. Met a lot of Wonderful folks living in a wonderful place.

You’ve done the hardest part… Thought about it. Now it’s just the execution.
I agree with the rest. Go for it!Then stand back one day, look down at that little piece of paper and raise your fists to the world and say… I did it!

PapaSop Yep I agree with you. Best thing I did was go with the electric trade. It is the advice I now pass on to anyone who will listen.
deweymeats PapaSop I know if I had live to do over, I would have become an electrician. I loved doing it, and when I take in account all the years and money invested in my too many degrees, I would have been much better off with a solid trade. College degrees are great, but not the goal for ever one.
