2. until recently NO ONE would go to college to work in this industry. most people in management or ownership worked in the field for many years.

3. even still I'd say 99% of people working in this industry(field or office) didn't get into it on purpose. something else didn't work out so they ended up in it.

like myself, I was a lazy screw up right after high school. I got in because I lost my job and couldn't find anything else. then after a few years I started making some pretty good money. then before I knew it I was making so much(nothing to brag about) there is now no way I can leave and go do something else making what I make now. in fact there's a very good chance that I'll take a little pay cut with my first job after graduation.
You are in automotive parts manufacturing?
It meets all the same standards.
