The average diesel tech salary is around $30k per year. That’s a lot of money. Not to mention the fact that it’s not just the diesel tech salary that makes a big difference. The education that you get, the skills you gain, the lifestyle you gain, and the overall satisfaction you gain are all a big part of your salary.
Diesel tech salaries are generally the same regardless of where you start, so you can start out at almost any level of education, and then work your way up.
Diesel tech salaries are relatively stagnant. I know that I was lucky enough to start out with a top-notch education, and then I was lucky enough to find a job that gave me a lot more than just a college degree.
The good news is that Diesel tech salaries tend to grow as you move up the ladder, but the bad news is that if you start at the bottom, you’re likely to get a job that pays a lot less than what you get today. Diesel tech salaries are, for the most part, about half of what you’d make at a tech job.
If you were able to make a living as a Diesel tech, I’m sure you would be able to make a living as an engineer or programmer. However, to do that you need a college degree. There are few Diesel tech jobs that require any formal education, and there are very few programming jobs that require a college degree. When you start out, you get a job that pays a lot less than what you make today.
Many people have the same issue that I do. It’s this thing where you feel like you do a lot of “man-hours” now but you don’t really have the time to do all that much of anything. The truth is, there is a ton of work that you can do on your own that will make you more money in the long run. So do all that work and you will make more money then you would if you worked for yourself.
This is also a thing that we see in the tech industry. Not only is the average wage lower, but often times the jobs don’t require any college degree. That means, you can work harder and do more with less time. The job that pays the most money is the one that requires the least amount of education.
Diesel tech, such as engine tech, is a profession that requires some college and an associated diploma. So if you want to make more money as a diesel mechanic, you have to be able to pass the required exams and go to college.
Diesel mechanics are some of the most technical jobs you can get. Although, they are also the most dangerous. To be a diesel mechanic is to be involved with running a diesel engine under extremely high pressure. This is the sort of work that requires the most training and practice as well as the most hazardous techniques. Diesel mechanics are also the most likely to become seriously injured.
Diesel mechanics are probably the most underpaid workers in industry. I know we have to be careful about this, but when you see something like this come in, you can’t help but be reminded of the horrors of slavery.
