He's not your text book safety man.
I simply would rather go get a degree in safety and try and work my way up the totem pole vs going and being a PTech . Which I considered going for, but recent talks have changed my mind majorly. But I highly doubt I would be able to work my way up like he did anyways.

Dude just suck it up and get you an engineering degree. You have had several posts on career descisions and pretty much all involve you short cutting college. Whats 4 or 5 more years of school for the next 35 years of working? Get a job and dont like?....change fields. Also if being a safety man is just your absolute dream job you can do that too. Only difference is you can get into safety management quicker. My 2 cents...
