And for the record, I never went to college. I'm proof that it is (or at least it was when I took this position years ago) possible to not go to college and still get a high paying desk job.
Weren't you military though?
That's basically free trade school

That is true. I was in armor which is sort of similar to earth moving heavy equipment. The fact I was in the army only got my foot in the door (I started out in out Shipping Dept making $5.50 per hour). After that it was on the job experience that I used to advance. Now this was mostly in the mid to late 90's and this company was (and still is somewhat) at that time very much old school in that they place a greater weight on experience than a piece of sheep skin. That has changed a good deal though. I'm pretty sure had I started out 10 years later than I did, I never would make it to where I am.
