Rudolf Diesel

Introduction: In 1900, nobody would have thought that almost all of the future vehicles would be powered by a diesel engine. But one man, under the name of Rudolf Diesel, was determined to change the future of mechanics forever. Paragraph 1: Although he died in September of 1913, Diesel made a legacy for himself by being the first human to build and operate a working diesel engine, which would go on to power big trucks and diesel locomotives.

Diesel technicians are frequently the highest paid on a dealership lane, and get paid just as much if not more than most computer programming jobs as well as much more. Diesel engines contribute to about 52% of the vehicles on the road today and that number is only expected to go up. As the amount of diesel vehicles go up, the demand for technicians to work on them will raise as well. Not only do diesel engines interest me, but engines in general. So the time for me to pursue my career is…

cruising and the Learning Style Test that I took, I learned out that I am a 10% visual learner, a 20% auditory learner, and a 70% tactile learner. With knowing that I am mostly a hands on learner, I have chosen that a Diesel Technician would be a great career choice for me. The main work of line as a diesel tech is always hands on. From my matchmaker/ skills test, a diesel Technician came up as an A+ rating for me. Other A+ ratings that came up too were a Farm equipment technician, heavy…

the eyes of our critical society appear unimportant, or insignificant. Among that group of outcasts are diesel mechanics. Diesel mechanics are the driving force behind corporate America. They allow for commercial trucks to remain in a good enough standing to where they can transport the goods and services that Americans so desperately need. Diesel mechanics are very much like the unsung heroes of our modern day corporate world. Without diesel mechanics Americans would most likely…
