    The tech sector can’t find workers fast enough. Manufacturing is endlessly looking for workers.

    I do network engineering and also have worked in manufacturing (mostly driving forklifts). Those things are indeed hiring; but they only want to pay $18/hour. How hard of a concept that is to understand?

    But if you wanna pay my tuition, I’d be happy to get a degree in something instead of just being Cisco and A+ certified and just going by years of experience doing the work.

      My friend, you gotta get a different job. They are criminally underpaying you. I am currently working Desktop Support making $35/hr, I’d be astounded if any of our network engineers make less than that.
