on the plus side tho',it's never the same day twice(especially line)you always are thrown new challenges and you'd never argue that you are bored-with-nothing-to-do
The financial rewards are there to be gained if you locate with the good companies,overtime can boost this considerably.......some companies actually do appreciate thier assets(us techies)and generally look after them(i do know some companies are dogs!!!) I think the industry is a little chaotic a this precise moment,but if you saw the engineering staff shortfalls in 'FLIGHT' recently,i think the trades and qualification will only increase in value and so will the attitude towards it......no matter what the accountants say there will always be aircraft engineers and good ones will be viewed as golddust...RIGHTLY SO,EH?
Besides,there are loads of gorgeous women that like like a rough and dirty techie and especially those who wear nice uniforms,shades'n'leatherman style on the line
god i love my job!
