I like working working on machinery and equipment that I normally would not have access to at 16 years old. I feel like I am at an advantage with the on the job training and experience I am gaining when compared to others my age, or right out of high school. I want to pursue a career in public works after high school and feel this apprenticeship will give me the head start needed.
