Question: how do i become a heavy machine operator? what does it take? i want to be a construction machine operator. im willing to go to a school or training program. i just want to kno if it is hard to get into these unions and what does it take to get into them. i want to make a good living doing this and want to know the best areas to pursue this carrer..?

Answer: Most trade schools offer heavy equipment training courses. As for the union thing once you nail down a job you will sign with a union that covers the particular area that you are working in. The biggest thing is getting experience on the heavy equipment. Not all construction firms are willing to hire "green horns" right out of school, so you might have to gain experience with a smaller non-union firm and move up from there. Any urban area that has allot of subdivision building going on. In Canada southern Ontario is the hot spot right now. Good luck in your search.

Question: In a Factory,who is more important?The accountant,the researcher,the salesman or the machine operator?

Answer: THE SALESMAN !... I agree that the team must work together. However, It is said that "necessity is the mother of invention". Without a customer's need, a researcher need not invent, a machinist need not create, and the accountant has no money to account for. The salesman is the critical link between the factory and the needy customer. I am a professional sales coach, what else can I think? Bruce at boatclub@go.com . Give your sales technique a boost!
