It is a shame that the US hasn't invested in trade schools and apprenticeships as a viable entry into good paying jobs that can't be exported or made irrelevant by AI and tech.

I went to machine shop in vocational school over 45 years ago. It has provided me with a very good life.

I have lots of scars on my fingers but they are still all attached.

I went through the plumbing apprenticeship. Dirty physical work but well paying for sure.

I got my Class A CDL while working for Coca Cola here in Atlanta 20 years ago. I eventually ended up driving a gas tanker for four years then got in with the oil and gas pipeline.
Mercuric Mind (I dont know how to tag you on this site) thanks for all the helpful links. This is the kind of stuff I was talking about.
By the way, I browsed a bunch of your build pictures and I have to say well done. I really like the entire approach you took and the way you built your bus. I would love to have built a smaller 20-30 footer but all these kids need a place to sleep too lol.

Thanks Bjorkinman, I never did anything like this before so it was a lot of planning and I took it one day at a time. Every day was a new and exciting challenge. Yep, kids need space,time, and money. Kodos to you for figuring out how to do this with a family.
