So I can go back in time 12 years and use AutoCad again, or keep using StruCad but become an extinct species at a young age... Still have 35 years of working life to go.
I have one year of experience on the other software Tekla, but that was 6 years ago. The only jobs these days in the trade are for guys with a lot of recent experience using Tekla.
Not sure what to do, I'm oldish....broke, have a family and pretty much out of work with a lot of specialized, but now useless work skills. How things can change.

Start figuring out Tekla on your own time if possible. Fudge your experience with it.
