Power line workers

AC repair

Diesel mechanics

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

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

35 per 100,000

Not that bad

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

It's a lot of traveling though

All the trades need people. I run into people everyday looking for young guys to pick up the trades.
The problem is young guys don't want to work hard.

I went to school for machining. Worked at a machine shop writing programs doing set ups and tool changes on cnc machines for production use. Started out at 40k and loved it. Would probably still be there but I was stuck on 3rdshift with no sign of seeing first within 15 years. So I quit and became and automotive technician. Was very successful and was making over 60k after a couple years. I got to where I hated my job and spent my time off dreading going back in. So I quit and now I work on heavy equipment and like it for the most part because I travel all over the state and never do the same thing at the same place day to day

My dad was the superintendent of maintenance at Ford LAP for over 20 years and he always complained there weren't enough good tradesmen left.

Hey is anyone @here aware of any job leads. I have no experience other than basic electrical, plumbing and carpentry stuff from redoing some houses. In desperate need of a higher paying job.

I don't think it's just young people. Everyone now days want to be millionaires that party all the time and don't want to have to earn anything.

I did work in a restaurant for 3 years cooking and managed it for a year

Master a trade, become a leadman. Bullshit your way into something better. @JohnStrasser

Also a year at a bank and a year managing a grocery store Front End

@JohnStrasser Where are you located

@RevStench how do into that?

Nc but I am willing to go anywhere

Your managerial experience would almost garuntee you a job if you learned a skill

Let me ask around. I live in LI so if you ware willing to come here I may be able to help

@JohnStrasser prove your worth, the old school way, I out work people, I do the things most people won't.

@RevStench Thanks, modern education system for painting the trades as work for the Morlocks

For sure

@RevStench same here bro

Like @JesseJames everyone wants to be a millionaire

Everyone wants to be an Eloi

I don't meet a lot of plumbers these days, and the old guys I meet can't find anyone to train.

Kids now days think they can rap or do pranks on YouTube and become rich and famous. It's so easy why bother with learning anything.

Reeeeee

I know a couple plumbers one industrial and one residential both do well for themselves

@JesseJames It's a lot to do with their parents. My mom, to this day, nags me to go back to school, even though I'm worth more than half my cousins, despite being a decade younger than most of them.

Brainwashing the natives into thinking they're too good for skilled labor brought about the current immigration crisis' in the West

check your PM regarding job @JohnStrasser

Thanks guys

Remember that Socrates was a stone mason. And most of our founding fathers were either tradesmen or farmers.
