I HAVE BEEN IN THE FABRICATION END OF THIS BUSINESS FOR TEN YEARS AND NOW I
QUESTION MY FUTURE.. I TRAINED UNDER A HIGHLY REGARDED BOSS WHOM I THOUGHT
THE WORLD OF. I LOVED DOING CUSTOM LAMINATIONS AND SEVERAL OF MY SOCKETS
HAVE EVEN APPEARED IN MAGAZINES.. I KNOW HOW TO DO JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING
INVOLVING FABRICATION AS WELL AS ASSISTING OTHERS WHO HAVE BEEN DOING THIS
LONGER... I HAVE NO BOC ABC OR ANYTHING ELSE ATTACHED TO MY NAME. I DON'T
EVEN HAVE A DIPLOMA OR A GED.. MY BOSS ALWAYS TOLD IT WAS NOT IMPORTANT TO
BE CERTIFIED.. I THINK HE WAS AFRAID OF ME BEING SMARTER THEN HIM.. NOW HE
IS GONE AND ME AND MY COMRADES ARE FENDING FOR OURSELVES DESPITE LACK OF
INTEREST FROM OUR PARENT COMPANY..
I WILL PROBABLY NEVER HAVE A DEGREE IN ANYTHING...

I LOVE MY JOB ... I KNOW THAT THERE ARE OTHERS MAKING MORE THEN ME BECAUSE
THEY HAVE A CERTIFICATE ON THEIR WALL OR LETTERS ATTACHED TO THEIR TITLES..
I AM SIMPLY A TECH.
IS MY FUTURE IN THIS FIELD BLEAK BECAUSE I DON'T FIT THE PERSONIFICATIONS OF
A INDIVIDUAL IN THIS FIELD....I AM VERY OPEN MINDED AND LEARN ALL I CAN FROM
READING AND WATCHING OTHERS.. NOW I AM LEARNING ORTHOTICS FROM OTHERS WHO
ARE OPEN WITH THEIR TEACHINGS YET I WILL NOT RECEIVE A CERTIFICATE FOR THIS
  IM GLAD I CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OTHERS LIVES.. BUT HOW WILL ALL THIS
LICENSING AFFECT MY FUTURE .. IS THERE ANYBODY OUT
THERE.......................
