    Well guys I just told you what I'm doing now. So here is my list. Grew up around a apple orchard where my Dad worked, and so did I in the summers. Worked as a cook for KFC. while in high school, Worked at a Gas station as a mechanic. Next I worked as a certified welder for a union coal mine till it shut down. Than I was a production supervisor for a Turkey processing plant, then for company I Got my class A, B,& C State waste water license, and Lab license as well. I got my State Boiler license, Federal Refrigeration license, & my Ammonia refrigeration technician license. When I got my job at the power plant I was hired for the water lab, but you start at the bottom and work up in job position as they come open, so I bid on a Heavy Equipment operator for a pay raise until I got a lab job, but like running equipment so much I stayed put,and been doing it for the last 17 years.
