![]() A friend of mine went to UTI, worked his butt off, and got in a job building race engines in Florida before he was finished (provided he completed the course, which he did). He was taking home $60k a year within a year and a half, but he didn't like Florida. He moved back here and recently opened his own machine shop where he builds engines for everything from Sprint cars to NASCAR cars running in several different series. He's making more money than he knows what to do with, and now has more Snap-on tools than the local truck. He also has a couple very nice projects he's working on. He went into UTI with a good working knowledge of engines, but said that the info he learned there, combined with the companies that seek new employees from there, and his determination, assured his bright future.
Bottom line is this, IMHO: There are 3 professions that a person can get into that will guarantee them a job with a "positive cash flow" in any town in America; Nursing, Auto Repair, or selling drugs. Take your pick. Take care, -Chris
