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

2017-09-30 16:23:40 UTC  

It's a lot of traveling though

2017-09-30 16:32:44 UTC  

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.

2017-09-30 16:37:45 UTC  

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.

2017-09-30 16:37:59 UTC

2017-09-30 16:38:17 UTC

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

2017-09-30 16:39:38 UTC

2017-09-30 16:40:56 UTC

2017-09-30 16:42:29 UTC  

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

2017-09-30 16:44:19 UTC  

Everyone wants to be an Eloi

2017-09-30 16:46:11 UTC  

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

2017-09-30 16:46:14 UTC  

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.

2017-09-30 16:46:23 UTC  

Reeeeee

2017-09-30 16:47:44 UTC  

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

2017-09-30 16:48:29 UTC  

@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.

2017-09-30 16:49:49 UTC  

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

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