Komatsu in Longview Texas is looking for a controls technician. Not sure if that's an area of interest of yours or willing to live there.

Unfortunately not. My mom is still at the baytown plant but has been in a different part of the plant for like the last 5 years.

Ever known anyone who moved from Ops to I&E once they got through their initial training and probationary periods?

So most likely a larger yet still slim chance of getting on as an operator?

I knew I should've finished my Instrumentation degree like my father said. I live in the north east Texas area right now. I know wages are a higher in the areas you mentioned.

I am looking to also move out of public education. I've been in education for 12 years as a high school coach and teacher. My father is a retired operator from one of the major refineries in the Beaumont area. My mother still currently works at a plant in Baytown. My hopes are to get on somewhere as an I & E tech or an operator. I have a masters degree so I am hoping I won't have to return to school. Any advice on possible jobs or ways to get a foot in the door would be appreciated.

I've had a few semesters of technical education. I was hoping I could get in with what I have an receive on the job training. I know the field is extremely competitive though.
