where do you work sparky?

Mastrtcal depending on what you did in the architecture office your welding background may help you get a job in an engineering or construction management firm.

My Bach. of Architecture, combined with my 15 years in the building trades, means that I get offers sometimes from firms looking for someone to go out and do site visits and on site management. You lack of experience my or may not hinder you in this. Depends what they are looking for and what you did in the arch office.

I was office manager/third string drafter. I didnt really enjoy drafting much at all. Because of my drafting I'm sure there something out there that could use those skills but I want to weld and not pour over prints.........

Sounds like fun! need any welders?
