After graduating from high school, I thought about not taking the typical path. I didn't know exactly where I wanted to go, only that I wanted to work with my hands. And preferably in an honest working environment where you can just be in a bad mood on a bad day. Today, I've been working as an equipment mechanic at Lufthansa Technik for more than 10 years and feel really at home here. If I ever come to work in a bad mood, it's gone as soon as I speak to my first colleagues.
