garyt1957 Growing up, my stepson showed absolutely no mechanical interests. He was a very smart kid and student. After high school, he was one of those 'drifting', not sure what to do. He did get a job where I worked, must have seen something he liked on the rooftops, lol. He enrolled in the HVAC classes at a local jr. college. Graduated top of the class and was working the day after graduation. He's now foreman of the local crews and makes the kind of money that teachers, etc. can only dream about, plus great benefits. His brother, who was not showing anything in the 'scholar' dept., surprised us when he enrolled in the local electronics school. Worked for a casino after graduating, then got snatched up by a local hospital organization, as a computer tech. He's been their lead/head tech almost from the beginning, traveling from location to location(locally) keeping everything in shipshape. Not sure of his income/benefits, but I'm sure it compares with his brother's.
