Mark got word today that his welding exam will be next Wednesday. Any of you that would be willing to cross a finger or two for him, we'd really appreciate it. He has been practicing diligently and has a really good feeling about it. It's been a long time coming.
For those of you who don't know, this test will determine whether he can bypass the 5 year apprenticeship program and go straight for his journeymans card with the Pipefitters Union. Do not pass GO. Do not collect $200. In laymans terms, he'll go straight to doing what he loves and getting a much better paycheck for it. Sadly, he'll still be on the road a lot but at least he'll be doing work he truly enjoys, while making a better living and building a better pension.
