so welfare employment is just not an option and I dont understand why it is even a question
so that means machines need to make everyone's lives easier
including the unemployed who are only unemployed because machines made them obsolete
yes
and I say that as someone who can't be replaced without a fricking skynet AI
makes no sense to increase productivity and reducing buying power of the population
someone needs to buy the stuff you can produce so easily now
"get rid of jobs" "don't bring in more jobs or supply anything for those you unemployed to do"
"man why are all these people unhappy and unemployed"
like, if people flooded the trades, we tradesmen would be screwed, because we're only in demand because everyone thinks being a tradesperson is for uneducated artards (since you're supposed to go to university to learn useless garbage instead)
nowadays the retards go to university while the smart person learns a trade and makes bank
the only thing required to be a quality labourer is having a good work ethic and protein
yes, bare muscle is the cheapest part of a human he can market
@Angus Oh, I was implying the skilled trades, like electrical and plumbing.
Either you're union, or you're not.
I've seen both do hatchet jobs that look like a horror film
genitals are above that, and actual brain power on the top
you're joe blow labourer probably does about 20% of what someone who actually gives a shit will do
yeah I meant like, literal trades
that you need to apprentice for
yes, a tradecraft is something useful
underappreciated
there's 1 other guy but he's 34
yeah in my craft as well, a whole bunch of old farts
so it seems like nobody wants to enter the trades nowadays
want to earn silly amount of money if you have the strength and mind for it, become a tower climber or lineman as they are always in demand everywhere
yeah I don't want a job where the mortality rate is over 1%
otherwise I'd do ocean welding
then become a normal electrician and specialise in low voltage alarm systems. you will have like 250 days of travel each year from all the jobs
"low voltage" "anywhere from 25-699v"
I love that definition
feels like I'd be elbowing into someone else's territory
well it not the voltage that kills you it the ampere
Wait, isn't 480 usually listed as High voltage?
Oh, wait, ignore me
(This is why I'm not an electrician.)
in the canadian code it's 700v
according to wikipedia it's 1000v
I think I'll believe the updated 2019 code book though
still alarm systems are not the kind that kills you, it like working on a IT network cables and voltage
I just remembered that the 24v system I work on is labelled "high voltage" lol
wtf
