Lots of overtime. In my experience (I'm a welder working in a machine shop with three large cnc machines) the cnc guys work a ton of overtime, you can make a lot of money. But it looks rather boring to me.

They were all older? If so, I am not surprised. Some one ambitious and talented enough can be a supervisor in short order and increasing their value in the market.

Exactly my thinking. I'm also already signed up for 12 credit in fall and they want me to continue schooling.
I'm thinking there is a ton of opportunity here.

This. I work a lot of overtime at my shop. 10-12 hour days, 6 days a week. It can be kind of boring. I get to do other things as well as machining though which helps. I think if I was on the machines my whole shift I'd probably go crazy.
What kind of shop did you get in at? What kind of material will you be working with?
