technician job experiences

There is a technician shortage in our area -literally -the dealers,tire chains,used car shops -they all have help wanted signs. I have never seen it like this , so after 40 years of the same place , decided to fill out some applications. They all claim "better" so I was wondering.....that's all. A person spends his life taking care of priorities like feeding the family , and keeping a roof over their head and once that is accomplished and the child is grown up and moved away you say to yourself "should I be still driving this 90 Ram to work everyday or do I owe it to myself to try and see how the other half lives". I have 10 good working years left , God willing........
