Once I got out of the military, before becoming a pipe layer, I also worked in a factory as a machine maintenance shift lead There I learned how to fix different types of machinery and learn how different factory machines operate I ran a whole shift by myself so they would bring any and all machine problems to me and I could get them fixed
