lots of good info here,MY advice since you asked,do both.14-15 dollars is basically minimum wage nowdays,especially for a young person who will pay near to half that in taxes.But the experience gained is very helpful.and your student loan payments are deductable.But, and this may be something to look at,machinists are out of work all over the country,personally i know of more unemployed than ones that have a job.the reason i think is that so many of these jobs are going overseas.Myself if I had it to do over again,would do as someone else suggested,take as many basic courses possible at your local community college while working,and be watching my chosen field for those niche type jobs that require some special schooling that may give me a leg up on the competition for a better job,and make sure i had that training.Its quite simply a different world today than it was for most of us.A college education used to really mean something,now it doesnt even guarantee you know how to read!but to a future employer it makes a difference.Lots of us have been lucky in that we grew up in a time in this country when you could go out and get a job,work hard at it,make a hand and advance while making a good living,simply because of the times we lived in.I dont think thats really the case anymore,i think that to get and hold a good job,your going to have to market yourself just like a company in our day would who was trying to get a contract.to do that your going to have to be (like the saying goes) the best you can be. and that means your going to have to have all the tools you can get..
