re-evaluation
Just some random blathering from me
Sitting in at westlands helicopters the other day there doing nothing ( if you know about them you know what i mean ) and just realised my life is complete and utter s**t !
Ive wasted so much time, money, effort, blood, sweat and tears and its got me nowhere
this was the moment i realised im getting nowhere fast and need to change, so as of today, all non essential cars, parts and general crap i have is being sold off and il be running around in a ZX ( citroen zx diesel that is )
After this contract ends, all saved cash is going towards me aquiring new skills and training to better myself and try and give myself a much needed boost to do something that i can be proud of
Will be learning MMA and getting my coding, have been looking at a course on fabricating composites and ally,
Does anone have any other suggestions to any engineering skills i should go for ?
I can already do basic machining, sheet metal etc.
Looking to diversify and generally broaded my skill base to look more attractive as im looking to move to NZ

Have been considering that mate, tis why im going back to college to learn MMA and get my coding, also noticed a company specialising in sheet metal fabrication courses ( im in aerostructures so sheet metal is not my forte)
Any kinda job that involves fabrication is right up my alley, love working with my hands

was considering contacting the tuning place near me, and seeinf of he would like to expand to custom fab stuff, would love that as i would ask him to teach me the other side, mapping etc,
the more i learn the better, you cannot improve your self enough
