i had spent about 14 years as a precision mold maker. that industry has been taking a crap and they are small shops that do not care to much about their employees. had been looking to get out for the last few years but to change careers with a stay at home wife and two kids is next to impossible.

now i have been working for the city of los angeles for the past 8 months. i work for the ladwp on the power side. my "title" is steam plant assistant 1. basically i am in an entry level job at a power plant in operations, learning how thing work and how to keep the electricity flowing out of our station.
