Hello all, im new to HEF and just trying to network to find out how I can get into the business. Im from GA (Atlanta to be exact) and im want to know everything there is to know about the heavy equipment trade. I am in the process of getting my CDL Class A permit. I would like to add, I am 31 years old and I have wasted most of my life at office/hospital jobs working with women, I have missed my calling for years and now I want to get my hands dirty.

I am angry that it took me so long to do so. I just want to do something that I will not hate getting up in the morning for. Here's to Heavy Equipment.:drinkup

Thanks:thumbsup I see you are from Mass. Did your company get any of that Big Dig action??? That in my opinion is the greatest enginering feat in my lifetime.

I think you will find out that there will be women operators and CDL drivers in the construction industry that will be tough competition.:cool2
