Well, it's a little late, but I've been out of town, good luck with you quest. It takes some guts to change like that after so long.

Hey Thanks ChinPieceDave667,

It's just time for a change. Days like this sure make it easier to get out though. Started at 4 A.M. did'nt finish up and leave till 8 P.M.

Not only that man, its just hard work and back pains. I work for a small pumbing company with a team of 4 putting new pipes in and doing remodels. But anyways it seems to be easy work because i'm not dealing with dirty toilets and what not. But with 8+ straght hours a day for 5 days a week will get to you. It's always bending over and lifting pipes and these copper pipes are like 20+ feet each and you gotta bring theme up flights of stairs. Yea I'm 20 and still young but its my 4th year now and its putting stress on my back and with another year and so on i don't think i am going to be able to put up with it. Yes the pay is damn good but when i get into my truck even for 5 minutes i feel so relaxed because of standing for 8+ hours i feel so damn tired i just wanna sleep. I can't because i got another hour drive to get home. So with that said i wanna take another path and go to school and hopefully find a job at a bank where i can just relax and make more paths for my upcoming future. I know what you mean joker. But i just took the biggest leap of my life by signing up for classes at the JC for fall semister. I'm thinking of being a cop actually funny story behind it because of my past haha crazy kids. Or getting into the IT TECH yeah i wanna become a computer junky/nerd but hey i wanna stack like jinga and walk with limps... PHAT POCKETS! but anyways best of luck to you bro and your career choices!!! stay up joker

^^^ I hear you, we have some old timers who have been doing this for a lot longer then me. Some of them are just beat up bad. They have had back and knee surgery. Considering what I weight I'm beating up my joints twice as bad as them.
