My brother in law has been with UPS since he was 17yrs old, started out loading trucks.. 14 years later hes a driver and maxed out with his pay.. Makes a pretty good income.

Made my first welds last night. I kept one of the pieces I welded together for a memento lol.

This class is stick welding. Striking an ark took some time. Really enjoying this class. The next class I can take after this one is MIG/TIG so that will get me ready for exhaust work.

Gorgeous morning in Nashville as well -- I kind of hate to jump on the plane and head back to Houston's heat and humidity!
