It's been a long journey in the Auto Glass industry. Though it has been a great journey. It's time for a change. The most enjoyable time was during Sheet Metal Fabrication. It would be great to work in the Fabrication Industry again. As the challenges of Auto Glass are not as stimulating as Fabricating Sheet Metal.
Getting back on the tools and machinery would be enjoyable. Although welding skills are dated.
