My nephew graduated hs in 2019. Received a scholarship to a diesel mechanic school in Houston. 100% job placement when finished. Went to work at a diesel dealership for $62k at 20 years old. One job move later and he's making around $75k.Not bad for a kid under 24 years old.
great...and what is his future? where is the growth? its not bad at all, but everyone cant be a diesel mechanic and making that and are you sure you nephew isnt lying?
turning wrenches is cool and all until you are 50 and its hot AF and Hard AF and your body is beat to shite and you have no 401k.

and probably cancer from dealing with all of the toxic chemicals and from chain smoking all of those years, don't recall too meeting many mechanics that aren't chain smokers
