I was in the same spot a couple years ago, and I ended up having a machinst job (job shop type place, also make sprockets and gears for AGCO, Arctic Cat, Gruett, Miller, Meyer's, etc...) land in my lap the summer before my senior year. I did it through the co-op program (work release type deal) at the high school and now have been there for almost 4 years. I went on to the Tech school and am currently taking part time classes for machine tool, class starts at 6:15 AM, goes for 3 hours then I go to work for about 6-8 hours/day. It's working out all right for me.

I'm getting about due for another raise too....... Donovan from Wisconsin
