Best Day Trading Computers
What are all the ex TV repair engineers doing now that its cheaper to buy new than have stuff repaired?
I was once a tv engineer but over the years as rental declined i found I had to adapt to other types of electronics to survive
automotive test equipment, warehouse control systems,computers and now industrial electronics
How many other trades have to keep changing to survive
looking back I should have been an electrician as they seem to be in a better position work wise nowadays but in my day electronics was the best trade to get into.
What are you doing now?
Do you still repair tv’s
Do you think your knowledge and expertise has gone to waste.
How much junk from the old days do you still keep to your wifes annoyance?
I have even found skilled techs driving fork trucks for a living as it pays better money now than repairing electronics.
Hi Rusty, your post touched a chord with me , from your term ” engineer ” I take it that you are in the UK ! I started out in the UK about 1952 as a TV engineer !! I worked for DER mainly for 10 years then was recruited by a TV service org in New Zealand in 1970 and I became a TV technician, same job but sounded posher and paid better ! 10 years later we moved to Australia , was still a TV tech but had my own business , work continued to be brisk throughout 70tys and the 80 tys and I retired in 1992 officially but continued TV and VCR repairs right up to 2005 but just for rellys and friends so much for retiring and I still feel like a TV tech ! I have hung on to some equipment and parts which my wife calls junk but I am unable to part with !!!I do think that my vast store of knowledge is by and large wasted but with the advent of Yahoo Answers I am able to pass some of the knowledge on and so far I have 72 best answers , what it means I don`t know but I know that I am still contributing after all these years !! Cheers Pete
