Commercial Kitchen equipment tech and HVACR tech.

Being an HVAC tech, do you make decent coin?

Not me Mang...


I head up GMAC's marketing program for extended warranties. Which are only GM related by name and owned primarly by Cerberus, soon to be broken off into a new public company since no private entity can own more then 9.9% of us under the new restructuring. Believe it or not, we make money, lots and lots of it.

Still, I am scared shitless to be here with the uncertaintity of the auto industry, I left GM's ad agency as a senior Tech editor for print media. GMAC also carries the extended warranty for Subaru and Suzuki (auto and powersports)

As for the "assurance/ confidence/ no job don't worry" programs. ... There have been private insurance co's offering this for a while, everyone followed suit when Hyundai did it.

I am waiting another 5 mos. before I buy a house or newer car ...until all this shit is done with.

couple short vids of us checking end caps for leaks before we got them anodized

6in CIOD PVC pipe burst test

12in CIOD PVC pipe burst test

These were run straight off a pump, standard tests the sample is longer and the pressure is released from a bank of accumulators so the pressure always increases linear even with pipe expansion.

I'm a service tech. for Amazon.  I fix conveyors, dunage machines, case sealers, dock locks/doors, n whatever else breaks.  I work in a 380,000 sq ft. building that currently holds 2.8 million pair of shoes(We hope to double that capacity by october).  There are two other buildings I get to run to if one of the other techs is absent... 

These are my favorite shoes in the building:

I walk around aimlessly scraping up abandoned coins outside of drive through windows whilst grasping at straws as to what the hell it is that I'm doing exactly and why I haven't killed myself yet.

Starting June 1st i'll be a full-time mechanical engineer in the Oil & Gas industry.  I am in a rotational engineering development program to figure out what exactly I like while working towards my masters.  Here is a pic of one of the compressors I worked on last summer back when I was an intern:



We also make huge centrifugal compressors that basically look like the cold side of a turbo except 20 feet in diameter.

Yep.  We make centrifugal, screw, and piston compressors.  I only work on centrifugal and screw though.  Same as a turbo or supercharger just much larger.
