Blue- I got your email but my iPhone won't let me respond through that account. Hey congrats on the delivery. I hope it all goes well. I'll shoot you a reply tonight. But I'm in no hurry. Get through all th stuff on you end and well get together.

Matt- the pipeline operations business is in dire need of new engineers. The old guys will be gone soon and a lot of companies know his and are actively seeking younger engineer. It's not a popular or common field but it's full of challenges. With less people aware of the industry for engineers it's advantageous for those in it. It's also tough to find good engineers when you need them. And most companies need them these days. They may be in a hiring free until the end of the year but keep you eyes open. There is probably a position in your area since pipelines run all across America and beyond.

I got into the industry by chance and I have never rgretted not going to work in Detroit as I had planned at the start of college. I tried manufacturing for a while and it was not for me. Troubleshooting and coming up with creative solutions is my thing and I have been happy to excercise those traits in the pipeline industry.
