There are 2 sides to every story. There are definitely days when I would much rather be back on the spanners up to my armpits in ATA 28 or ATA 79, than dealing with the political horse puckey.
aok47 keep trying, you don't necessarily need to have a license. Being a powerplants wallah with overhaul background means I've never held a licence, and people who come from manufacturers like AIB or BOE won't have licenses either. Selling yourself and finding the right niche is the key.
Good Luck.
PS - The totty is the only bit keeping me in the office
