Summary
I have run a successful welding and repair service for over 17 years now. However, I’ve been forced to step away from the business at this time and seek work that puts less of a physical burden on me due to spinal issues caused by my scoliosis(crooked spine). I’m in overall good physical condition, but mobile welding work is hot, grueling work that can often run from before dawn till well after dusk, so I have chosen a white flag on that particular battle in life. My hope is to continue being able to utilize the skills I’ve spent my entire adult life building to thrive in a new workplace setting with a less physically demanding nature.
Thanks!
