I left school at 14, I`ve worked hard in the sun or in factories, getting paid crap wages. My one saving grace was a family involvement in earthmoving equipment. I learned to operate ( adequately, that's all ) machinery. I walked away from it for 15 or more years but returned to it a few years ago. I get 18.50 an hour, yet gross near 70 k a year.. To do it, I generally work 6am -6pm five days a week and 6 hours saturday. I`d love to do something forfilling, I`m fuvked if I know what that might me. I envy anyone who had a dream of doing something and stuck with it. All I wanted to do was bongs and ride dirt bikes. I`ve forgotten where I was going with this.. Oh yeah, I grew up just before I turned forty, straightened right up, wish I had of done it when I was 30.. But heh, my ex wife wou ld have really cleaned up and that`d be about all.
