I can relate this example. My youngest son-in-law attended a vocational school(2yrs) in Indianapolis about 7 yrs ago and graduated first in diesel technology class. He was hired prior to graduation by a major truck line, and worked as a mechanic for about 4 years. He was promoted to shop foreman and transfered to another city. He was there for 1 yr and received another promotion and sent to St. Louis where he is shop manager. He is now 27 years old. Some of his classmates that graduated near the bottom are still here in town - turning wrenches. Hard work does have it's rewards! Good Luck and congratulations on choosing a demanding career that is sought after by business. The percentage of diesel powered vehicles is expected to double in 5 years, and the demand for quality mechanics must also double.
