The guy thats his right hand man thats training me to do what he does makes 80k+ in salary plus 3 weeks vacation. And he has no education besides HS. Im seriously considering this.
HVAC is good. think about this way. it's always going to be in demand. well if you have experience with it now, you might as well go that route.

HVAC is a good career to get in. My brother got his masters earlier this year and me and him both have good to some schooling for ammonia refrigeration. Alot of companies will pay for you to go to school you just have to work form them. It takes years to get a masters license in HVAC, plumbing, or electrical. They are really hurting for people to.

i wouldnt be working in HVAC per say, but I would be the supplier. Ductworks, Inc. makes the ductwork and fitting and all for installers like JM Taylor and Mechnical2. they do anything from Ikeas and Government Buildings to Homes being built and one peice of duct or fitting.

My official title is Compliance Officer, I audit our quality system, implement changes, generate forms and processes. Make necessary changes to remain compliant with AS9100C and am in the process of making us NADCAP compliant. After I graduated I worked at Creative Colors in Frederick for 4 months before work slowed up so bad they laid me off. Came back here because they let me start back at my previous pay rate and kept all my bennies and vacay. Work stopped but not my bills

Only Issue I've had is from my moron friends installation, not with the product itself. *IE he didn't torque the manifold bolts properly*
