Rockozt replied to Anthony McKechnie's discussion Help with my future career/ finances"Haha, I feel ya there Rick, every day is a 13hr work shift for me, overnight. But it's the job, and I've done a whole lot worse."
Rick Shelton replied to Anthony McKechnie's discussion Help with my future career/ finances"Try 12 to 18 hours a day 7 days a week for three to four weeks at a time away from home. But it's all good, 'cause I'm liking it, at least I'm not in a tent in the desert like it used to be d;D."
Rick Shelton replied to Anthony McKechnie's discussion Help with my future career/ finances"Not all true about measuring ability to learn.

Walt Chaison replied to Anthony McKechnie's discussion Help with my future career/ finances"Congrats on working towards a college degree, but keep in mind that many companies look at a degree as only way of measuring your ability to learn and finish what you start.
