N\u00e3o muito tempo atr\u00e1s, Shane Able era um motorista de caminh\u00e3o que n\u00e3o sabia o que era uma cooperativa.<\/p>\n
Able se formou no North American Lineman Training Center em McEwen, Tennessee, em agosto, e est\u00e1 construindo um futuro que ele n\u00e3o sabia que existia h\u00e1 um ano.<\/p>\n
\u201cEu dirigia um caminh\u00e3o, mas n\u00e3o via muito futuro na \u00e1rea\u201d, disse ele. \u201cVi algo nas redes sociais sobre me tornar eletricista e procurei escolas de treinamento por perto.\u201d<\/p>\n
O NALTC chamou sua aten\u00e7\u00e3o, e Able percebeu que, na pior das hip\u00f3teses, ele conseguiria sua CDL. Em vez disso, ele encontrou o melhor futuro poss\u00edvel ap\u00f3s quatro anos de busca, incluindo a conquista da mais recente Bolsa de Estudos Memorial Daniel L. Schuckman e W. Eugene Roberts da Hoosier Energy.<\/p>\n

\u201cAntes de come\u00e7ar a estudar, eu n\u00e3o sabia o que era uma cooperativa. Eu sabia que havia uma REMC aqui na cidade, mas n\u00e3o sabia que era uma cooperativa\u201d, disse a nativa de Greensburg. \u201cDepois da primeira semana de aula, eu sabia que era exatamente isso que eu queria fazer.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ap\u00f3s concluir o ensino m\u00e9dio em 2021, Able come\u00e7ou a dirigir um caminh\u00e3o antes de aceitar um emprego no departamento de tr\u00e2nsito da cidade de Westport por oito meses. Depois, voltou a dirigir um caminh\u00e3o em uma fazenda, mas sabia que precisava de uma mudan\u00e7a.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"Gosto de me manter ocupado", disse ele. "N\u00e3o gosto de ficar sentado num escrit\u00f3rio esperando o ponto. Se n\u00e3o estou fazendo algo, sinto que meu tempo est\u00e1 sendo desperdi\u00e7ado."<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cE ent\u00e3o tinha que dirigir a mesma rota todos os dias. Eu s\u00f3 queria fazer algo diferente a cada dia. E eu adoro me dedicar ao m\u00e1ximo e tentar ser o melhor que posso todos os dias. Esta ind\u00fastria vai me dar esse desafio.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Nas horas vagas, Able gosta de mexer em carros. Mas ele diz que isso \u00e9 um hobby, n\u00e3o um trabalho.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"Estou mexendo num Camaro 1998 para algumas exposi\u00e7\u00f5es de carros", disse ele. "Meu pai sempre nos ensinou sobre carros, como trocar o \u00f3leo, os freios e coisas assim. \u00c9 \u00f3timo saber mexer em carros, mas eu jamais faria isso para viver."<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Able est\u00e1 focado em trabalhar como atacante para isso.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"Quero experimentar um trabalho itinerante e ver o que acho", disse ele. "Acho que gostaria de trabalhar para uma cooperativa em algum momento, mas talvez come\u00e7ar como contratado, viajando e conhecendo todo tipo de gente."<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"H\u00e1 pouco tempo, Shane Able era um motorista de caminh\u00e3o que n\u00e3o sabia o que era uma cooperativa.
