Why I am interested in welding?
I have been working as a correctional officer at UTMB for the past 2 years and as it comes with numerous benefits and has proved to be a very interesting occupation shifting my perspective on mankind and the many errs we are capable of and how we react to the consequences of our actions.
I have been wanting a change from this career for quite some time now and I would prefer to have a much more hands on job that keeps me busier and makes me feel I'm putting more out into the world and making a larger impact on the environment and economy. I also feel like it will be a great opportunity for me to learn how to create so many things by the masses and helping further establish our industrial agenda.
