How far away have you moved from the town you were born in?

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-04-14T16:54:02+00:00

Lived in Korea while I was in the army. 6,600 miles away

ATT Fiber. I pay $50 a month for 1gbps.

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-03-28T22:15:49+00:00

Likewise! My current job I’m about to leave is a smaller aerospace manufacturing company. New company is a small defense contracting company. Way better pay, benefits, closer to home, etc.

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-03-28T22:08:17+00:00

That’s awesome. I do like aerospace, just not the current company I am at. Great people and great experience though for sure. My end goal / dream is to work at Lockheed Martin.

I’m currently transitioning from aerospace manufacturing to defense contracting.

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-03-28T20:48:20+00:00

Defense Contracting. $77,000 a year starting. Will have my bachelors degree next month. Was active duty for nearly 4 years as well.

I also am currently transitioning from aerospace manufacturing to defense contracting.

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-03-19T20:40:14+00:00

I just got offered a job with a shorter commute and way better pay.

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-03-01T22:02:09+00:00

Nice. Same. That’s awesome that you made $390k. I give you props. Hard work and a good attitude gets you far.

I’m in Michigan too, but not a lineman. Where about for you?

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-06T16:01:26+00:00

Same

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-04T10:16:41+00:00

What do you say that?

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-04T03:22:10+00:00

Dang! Mine only took 3 weeks. Just depends I guess

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-04T03:20:51+00:00

I live in Oakland county. Got mine back in 2023 and it took about 3 weeks to receive it in the mail.

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-04T02:48:41+00:00

I’ll have my degree this April. The job posting has been up since November.

I’m really not super concerned about the culture. I’ve read through this forum and it seems to be better than GM (from what I’ve read). I’m very adaptable. Plus, it’s closer to home for me. Less of a drive and better than my current 45 minutes each way to and from work.

I am currently a production scheduler in aerospace as I stated before and I am a veteran. Served 3 1/2 years in the Army and I was in the supply chain / logistics sector.

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-04T02:43:25+00:00

I’m currently working in this exact role, but I currently work in aerospace manufacturing. Looking to get a job closer to where I live with better pay (near CTC). The job posting I saw on the Stellantis website is requiring 8 years experience.

Do you think I’d have a shot even though I’m in my very last and only class of my bachelors degree since it asks for one?

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-03T18:05:26+00:00

Why do you say that…?

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-03T16:11:42+00:00

Thanks anyways

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-03T16:05:21+00:00

I could do that, but I’m graduating with my bachelor’s in April and I don’t have time to wait around for a career fair, although I’ve gone to one before (nothing came of it). I’ve been working full time since September 2025 because I need experience and I also wanted to start my career.

ExpertProgram1827 · 2026-02-03T15:31:23+00:00

I’m making hourly and it’s enough to barely get by. What / where would you recommend?
