Does anyone here understand that the American Welding Society has ruined the trade? Look at every job search engine on the internet..   I challenge you to find a dozen in the entire nation that offer more than 18 bucks an hour. Maybe you can do it, but my point is valid. It has merit. I told you guys a decade ago what was happening and I was laughed at. The AWS has gone from a standard for welders and companies, to a multi million dollar industry in just 10 years. They will dispute this, but do the research. The actual standard for welding has completely turned into a Chinese type business. American is just a word now. I told you.
