Agree on the welding training. Kids just don't do this anymore. There will be a shortage in a few years of welders that know more than one process. Most employers will train people, but in a very specific process. Not really welders in the classic sense. In my mind, a welder can weld any commercial metal, any position, any process.
What's nice about welding is that it is practically instantly rewarding - you know if you did a good job as soon as you are done. When I retire, I am going back into fabrication. I've always enjoyed it. Can't wait for my kid to build his own shop - that'll be my retirement hobby.
