You need Good advice, get certified somewhere, asap. then work at any shop and get sperience. How much frns ya got in savings? 5k or better?

If it suits your tastes Diesel mechanics are prime movers 100K$ a year after 3 years (if ya cut it) easy job really.

You need a cert (I guess) and job experience and some company to give you a break and hire you as green. Hussle your azz off and tell them give me a chance Ill give 110% and never be late. Show up at work 30 minutes prior everyday and be alert. Shut your mouth and dont drink with the crew. Be exceptional and youll be worth 300K$ in 10 years CASH.

Vehicle
Cert.
Experience
Aprentice job
Journeyman job
Trusted Hand
then you earn the Homestead and they call you for the job!!!

last on the list is toys , woman, goodtimes and boozin.

Options will be ; Work for a dealer, work for as a company mechanic (your own tools) union or not. DO THE MATH AND SLOW DOWN-- get away from your negative family / imature friends if ya have them and be a man. Be honest and true and let em know you wont be anyones B.

You chose the best industry. your building something OK?

You want to get away or avoid 'the man'? What are you a serial killer?

'The man' is everywhere, kid. Just try fishing or hunting in AK without a license, off season, or using illegal hunting practices.

Get your education, a year or two of experience and mature a little bit and then move to Alaska.

Onthemove....finish your education and then come on up. You're young and have plenty of time. Really though, I don't know why you haven't considered seasonal employment here for summer break. Lots of college kids do it and it's a good way to get a feel for it.
