Well, little fool, I'm a welder. I work all over the country and sometimes throughout the world. It was pretty fun when I was younger. I got paid to see the world! Now I have a family and all the hours at work and sometimes being thousands of miles from home have taken a toll.

Pick something better for yourself than welding!! GO TO COLLEGE!!!!!...or fish.

I looked into underwater once but there are enough dangers above water!! Underwater is way harder on you. My hat's off to those guys who do it though!
