"Name the Job" Game

Just a fun little game I thought of:

You give 5 criteria. 

You get a job that meets that criteria.  When we get 5 results, someone starts a new one.

I'll start:

1. Repair Stuff 

2. Outside

3. No Heights

4. No High Voltage

5. On The Job Training Only (meaning no apprecenticeships, college degree, etc required)

Even though I posed the criteria, I know of one example that meets it:

Natural Gas Utility Construction Crewman or Service Tech. 

We train everybody on the job. 

Road Crew Repairman

Not sure if I understand the game but 1 - auto tech

I will just argue that apprenticeship is, by definition, on the job training.

AAA Roadside Assist.

I would argue as well that an apprenticeship is also OJT.

I would have posted that link had it been open. But that rigger opening is close and used as an example.

When I started 14 years ago I was a 38yo apprentice. I was on the boats within two weeks turning wrenches as a outside marine machinist in shop 38. After a couple years they paid me $22/hr to get my associate degree. In 2012 I became a Journeyman. I have been to CT, CA, HI, VA for work. I have also spent a total of 16 days underwater as a civilian.

Pension, 401k, Roth, great health benefits, etc. To top it off I get to work on some freaking awesome machinery.

The shops I ran, you better have cred before you even ask me for a job.  I won't train.  You often end up with the first 30 cars they touch being disasters.  I know some shops will train, but I want techs to show up on your first day, pick up an R.O. and turn a wrench with the confidence that I don't need to hold your hand.

I took over a shop where they had hired an inexperienced tech.  He was diagnosing a possible head gasket failure.... by removing the pistons from the bottom and looking up in the cylinders.  He broke a piston crown trying to get it back in the bore without a ring compressor.  Congratulations, we just bought a wasted Chrysler Pacifica.

That's exactly what I was going to say.

Dude, that is just a story of horrifyingly bad management.
