Metal workers fabricate, install, and maintain thin sheet metal products. Although sheet metal is used to make many products, such as rain gutters, outdoor signs, and siding, it is most commonly used to make ducts for heating and air conditioning. Study plans and specifications to determine the kind and quantity of materials they will need. They measure, cut, bend, and fasten pieces of sheet metal. The pay for metal workers is a annual income of $41,710, or $20.05 an hour. The reason I chose this career is because I like to build different thing out of stuff and I would like to do some stuff with metal. Another reason is because it seems like a fun job to build thing out of metal. My career goals are to succeed in metalworking and build successful and incredible things.
