One of the kids everyone said needed to “apply himself” became a heavy equipment mechanic. He hated school but loved working with his hands and teachers saw a bad student. Turns out he just liked fixing $300,000 machines more than writing essays. He learned diesel and heavy equipment repair and went straight to work. Then he figured out the real money was going mobile. Bought a truck. Loaded it with tools. Loaded tacos for lunch. Started going directly to job sites when equipment broke down. Now construction companies call HIM when a machine stops moving. And when a $300k piece of equipment is sitting dead on a job site… Nobody asks what his GPA was. They ask: “How fast can you get here and can it be today?! Will YOU consider to RT so more C and D students see this. 🙏🏽🙌🏽 Day 235 tagging @mikeroweworks and bringing awareness to the trades and to the best new account @forklift_doctor
