@Deleted User Thanks much!

Two most important items I can think of. Lifestraw for water and a solar light with USB for phone charging. The latter worked wonders during hurricane!

@CuckTheKikes I would be happy to chat with you about it sometime. I do coach mostly white kids but have coached all races

2017-09-28 21:17:45 UTC

2017-09-28 21:56:34 UTC

Hey to @everyone what kind of trades would you recommend for our guys looking into trade school?

2017-09-30 15:47:00 UTC  

Electrical is in demand

2017-09-30 15:47:43 UTC  

HVAC is in heavy demand. Also welders.

2017-09-30 15:48:20 UTC  

Any trade is never a bad idea. I recommend electrical of the industrial nature. Tool and die , welding, pipe fitting hvac. Medical trades like X-ray tech and such are great too.

2017-09-30 15:50:29 UTC  

It is truly an employee's market right now in the maintenance field.

2017-09-30 15:52:10 UTC  

The boomers are retiring and due to the constant push for everyone to go to college there are not nearly enough skilled workers to replace them.

2017-09-30 15:59:11 UTC  

The ideal situation for a young man would be to find a company who will hire you and give you on the job training while paying you to go to school. I know that may be far fetched but it does happen. The only thing is you have to sign a no compete for 5 years or so.

2017-09-30 16:00:24 UTC  

As a young 19 year old I had that very opportunity but I pissed it away.

2017-09-30 16:00:29 UTC  

Lot of jobs like that paying for tech school as well

2017-09-30 16:06:51 UTC  

If I could do it over, I would try to be a machinist. I'm an electrician, and it's good work, and it takes a smart guy, but it's not so technical that the nogs can't do it.

2017-09-30 16:07:16 UTC  

@Deleted User Don't go to trade school.

2017-09-30 16:07:25 UTC  

I'm not.

2017-09-30 16:07:38 UTC  

Don't recommend it to people

2017-09-30 16:07:53 UTC  

If you're in a union state, talk to the union first.

2017-09-30 16:08:16 UTC  

If you're non-union, just get a job and they'll pay for your education

2017-09-30 16:08:20 UTC  

Usually

2017-09-30 16:08:37 UTC  

Know what's actually in pretty high demand in my area and pays well? Arborist tree-climber.

2017-09-30 16:08:46 UTC  

^^^

2017-09-30 16:09:03 UTC  

30K - 50K to start and doesn't require a ton of training

2017-09-30 16:10:17 UTC  

People don't understand that trees are living things, and they'll hire anyone with a saw to show up and ruin the aesthetic of their yard.

2017-09-30 16:10:52 UTC  

The big work in my area is clearing the tops around power lines, houses, etc

2017-09-30 16:11:16 UTC  

Power line workers

2017-09-30 16:11:25 UTC  

AC repair

2017-09-30 16:11:33 UTC  

Diesel mechanics

2017-09-30 16:12:01 UTC  

Line work is dangerous as hell. I think it's 1/100 mortality or something like that.

2017-09-30 16:12:25 UTC  

The wage is awesome, and you get all the overtime you could ever want, though

2017-09-30 16:13:15 UTC  

35 per 100,000

2017-09-30 16:13:20 UTC  

Not that bad

2017-09-30 16:23:19 UTC  

I have a friend who does it and loves it. Only took 6 months of training too
