I just started the SH130 toll road project down here in Texas, should be a 3 years ish gig. There will be a decent amount of electrician work for all the lights, toll booths etc.

 

I dont do contruction work, but i do work on contruction equipment (dozers, hoes, loaders, etc...)

 

I'm thinking about apprenticing to be a poop mechanic. The offer is on the table for me. I did it for a summer and was kick *** at it. So who knows?

Or I may stay through with my current college and come out as a computer programmer/software developer. Opposite ends of the spectrum, but it keeps it interesting.
