How do you get into something like that sir? Right now I am unemployed because my family fired me while I was on workman's compensation now I am screwed cuz the economy is soo f'ed up right now. I need some recommendations for a career and the education needed to achieve said goal. I used to be a hazardous materials driver and an experienced automotive technician.

Well, most of the people here got here by either answering a wanted add, knowing someone here, or by "cold-calling" the company looking for a job. The common thread is that they showed up ready to work and very flexible in the type of work they would do.

My case is a little different. I was looking for a different job, but an agent for my present employer found my resume online and called me to pitch the job. As it turned out, the company and I hit it off, and so here I am. In my life I've gone from automotive tech to engineering student to manufacturing engineer to aerospace engineer - so far, anyway.
