 Repair or build vehicles and other mechanically powered machines hard work everyday

 You can work as a mechanic anywhere basically but most people prefer tow work close to their hometowns so that there's not a lot of travelling

 Mechanic’s usually get paid $25.50 hourly rates and their total payment is over $30,000 to over $50,000 also around $35.00 overtime pay

 Mechanical engineers held about 215,000 jobs in 2002 more than half of the jobs were manufacturing mostly in machinery, transportation equipment, computer and electronic products the availability for mechanic careers is very slowly going to grow by 2012

 Being a mechanic can be very dangerous some people might not realize that mechanics are always exposed to some sort of danger while doing their work these sorts of dangers are always usually exposure to Asbestos and Mesothelioma in their workplace and their can usually be a lot of travel at times

 Mechanics need a lot of patients and also need to be a very friendly person with their customers not show them an attitude so basically what I'm saying is if you’re a person who can’t be bothered to be friendly with complete strangers and you have no patients you could probably not make it as a mechanic

 Diesel Service Technician, Automotive Service Technician and Aircraft Mechanic These jobs are related to my career plan because they both have to do with mechanical and technical services for people
