Re: Hows The Living
It is as secure as a person can make for himself as a beginning worker to pass through engineering and supervision as far as you can go. You have a choice of work environments as an employee or a business. The field is so broad that there is room to pick whatever you prefer. The trade will end when people no longer need to cool,, heat, or move air.

Re: Hows The Living
A job with a union shop would be the best way to go if possible, there are a lot of negative things said about union's but their training is way up on the scale, failing that it will be as a helper in an open shop and night school.
The good thing about HVAC is that there are many avenues of the trade to explore and the trade will stay strong as long as there are people on the planet. Make sure he looks into every possiblity before he takes a job. Good luck to him. |
