They provide everything form the electrostatic primer bonding, robot painting booths and ovens and the carriers that run the autos through them. After one year as a production worker, transferred into control panel shop as an electrical worker and I loved it (might say I "discovered electricity"). Started school and eventually transferred to electrical engineering group. In 1984 they started an automation and industrial washing division and been there ever since at a few different locations in SE Michigan. Was supervisor in 1994 until 1995, but resigned since it wasn't for me and they allowed me to return to engineering. DEsigned and built a lot of macines since then! However, last week my supervisor gave his notice and I was asked to step in, at least as interim boss (I couldn't say no a third time), so Monday starts a new chapter with the company I've been with all my life. Fortunate enough to have travelled worldwide (but not too much, thankfully). In fact, I go to Germany again for ten days in March.

I worked my way from being a team leader and supervisor to eventually a clinical manager for a private Radilogy firm here in Alberta. After over 20 plus years in this field I have no regrets. I work with an amazing group of staff and techs and my employer gives me the luxury of having as much time off as I wish.
