I concurr with your thoughts on operator training. But can't quite agree with your signature line. In my case, I worked in this industry 41 years, now retired, I can honestly say I have never regretted it - it was fun, hard work, long hours most of the time. But had the opportunities to travel to 42 of our 50 states, visit 5 different countries- never to"down under", left a little legacy along the way, met some fine people and made some close & still close friends - that ain't bad. Now I made room for a least one younger guy to get similar opportunities.
