I'm an assembly line worker and have been for about five years now at different factories. Refrigerators, car parts, ag equipment, etc.
There's a job opening coming up at a plant that offers college benefits though, so hopefully I get to join y'all in tech in a few years. Hopefully working with so many robots and machines will give me an advantage through sheer osmosis lol
I wish you luck! College/university is amazing! I wanna go back (went for trades) but it's super expensive and I managed to land a job in tech without a degree. We will see though.
