    I was offered an apprenticeship as a fitter, turner, welder many moons ago coz I knew how to work all the doodads in the workshop. Even managed to teach some of the guys that had been there 14 - 17 years and didn't know how to work them. Still a big chunck of me wishes I'd taken it up.

    I can do most things but fitter welders and fitter turners(essentially the same thing) like to poke shit at each other

    Not to mention 'mechanics'. I had that explained very early in the job. Still like the way the new foreman put me in charge of the guys that had been there 14 and 17 years when I'd only been in the workshop for two weeks myself, with little more than high school metalwork and a few nights at tech using hand tools. Really did enjoy that line of work.
