Seems we are a dying breed as the youger generation does not want to get dirty hands and heaven forbid the finger nails. I love what i do and it seems in the near future lift manufacturers are going to have to have nanobots built in to "self fix" or some of us will be factory techs with prepaid visa cards and racking up frequent flyer miles or both. I have seen many newbies come and go and most instead of carrying a wallet, tote a spatula in hip pocket. If a young mech would get factory training on lift brand of choice, and has Ase cert they could start out making above decent living.
