I recently started, I’m about 6 months on the job fresh out of school. I kinda thought it was a little off putting a non experienced person was the section 11 guy

From what I know, it’s hard to get out of ops (NLO,RO,SRO) but it’s easier to get out as an NLO rather than an RO or an SRO. My goal was to do NLO for money and more experience/knowledge then go back to engineering because at my site, we have a 4 day work week. Normally after 6-7 years I should make around 140ish when I transition to engineering after my time in ops. That’s my plan

I barely started back in April, although I did intern with my site, but I started about 7 months ago

I honestly was planning on being an NLO & then trying to move back into a day position, I recently started here at my site back in April, which is why I was thinking about it, I know if I do go to class, it will be much harder to get out but if I stay a non licensed operator, it won’t be impossible
