Education is the key. Construction is a young man's game. Being a laborer is no picnic. I hyave been involved in the construction game off and on for over twenty-seven years now. I am 48 with no back, leg or other ailments. The key was going back to school and working my way up from grunt electricians apprentice to estimator, project manager, using my construction background to became a facilities director in charge of new and renovation construction for several school districts over the last 12 years as in-house project manager/monitor and paid consultant. Long time ago an old and wise electrician told me the key was education and using that education to find the right position and work smart not hard. I follow that dictum everyday. Getting paid for what you know not what you do is the way to go and I am lovin' it.
