I am Trevor from Fresno.

I work at an electric motor shop, where I rewind electric motors(mostly AC machines), and do deliveries.

I'm currently studying to get my Associate's degree in specialized technolgy so that i can be an electronics technician.

I'm 18 years old.

that is me.

"diggin' my own grave..."

Too young for that, Trevor from Fresno. (I like reading this)

Please let us know when you got your degree. We will give you a nice job over here.

Clearly you've never been to Fresno!

Welcome Trevor. Diy audio is a great hobby, both from the music and the educational points of view.

You got that right... I might get shot while walking to the nearby liquor store

Plus I'm a folk/blues guitarist/harmonica player. If I'm ever going to be good, I have to act like a folk/blues guitarist/harmonica player.

Not even in the USA

But I found it on the worldmap.
What's up over there?

It's extremely hot during the summer, cold and foggy in the winter, and there are over 50 different language speaking groups in the metropolitan area.(Including a large Armenian community)

Not to mention 18-year-olds hanging out at the liquor store trying to get served.

Well Trevor, you seem to be on the right track. That's how I started (in 1959). You are lucky to get into a related occupation. I had to wash dishes, deliver stationary, and finally got a job as a tech at UL, (1962), once I had a few years of college. The motor winding shop can give you useful skills.
Keep yourself open to greater educational opportunity. You might want to become an EE or the equivalent, if math agrees with you.

Thanks for the encouragement, John!
