Default goin back to school....

well i quit high school and ive been workin at PUBLIX for two years doing stock and it gets to you after a while, especially when your boss is the same age as you and got his promotion for nothing, its pretty difficult because me and him are constantly i just want to knock the **** out of this fool but i look out in the parking lot and see my car and i decide its not worth it because i have to make my payment. SOOOO i enrolled for july classes, Fundamentals of welding T.I.G and M.I.G, i can already weld with a stick welder damn good, and can use a mig alright but i just need the piece of paper that says so........anyone out there welding for a living right now?

I don't do welding, but congrats on the paper chasing.

Someday you'll be making $60 per hour as a deep sea marine welder and we'll know how you bought that new 2009 Corvette.
