>keeps you fit year round>there is literally nothing cooler than building a house from the ground up>the Lord and Savior of humanity was a carpenter >skills that are transferable anywhere on earth at any time>isnt fake computer shitWhy aren't you a carpenter, faggot? Are you gay?
>>76613707>the Lord and Savior of humanity was a carpenterDo you suppose he appreciated the irony of being nailed to a piece of wood?
>>76613707I like making money and hate working with brown people.
>>76613729They are fucking everywhere >Electrical engineering is plagued by saarsFuuuuuuck!
The labor is light enough where it won't fuck up your lifts. Get a more labor intensive job and you will struggle to lift 6 days a week.
>>76613707>there is nothing cooler than building a house from the ground upTry saying that shit when you're outside in 99F heat in Texas with the sun blaring down on you the entire time.
>>76614062i'm good broyou can do it tho
>>76614142I hate carpentry because of the sawdust. Making pens is fun though.
>>76613707I see you and raise you.Gardener/landscape gardening>outside all day>lots of pulling and pushing movements>literally terraforming>creating beautiful spaces and places to be enjoyed by others>connected with the earth and nature at all times>vitamin D overload>grow your own fruits and vegetables and for your friends and community
>>76613707I'm a steel worker, it made getting in shape a lot harder for me actually. Spend all day at the factory, doing tiring work. But it doesn't actually get you much more fit. It's not like Popeye where you're constantly slinging around steel plates. Sure you lift stuff sometimes, stuff that can be quite heavy. But it's only lifting with your legs and back and if you value your body you will avoid lifting heavy shit and use the forklift or crane. Other work is shit that can also be hard but not necessarily build muscle like grinding, welding, loading trailers, sweeping, shoveling, hammering, etc. I'd much rather have an office job where I can come home not tired and have more energy to do proper workouts. But I didn't go to college so whateverAnd enjoy breathing in the sawdust, or in my case metal dust. I'll be dead 10 years earlier
>>76614178I see your metal dust and raise you concrete dust
>>76614194Are you a road worker? I always see one working and then like 3 fat black people watching them work
>>76614198>road workerThat's asphalt, typically.
Imagine being a blue collar retard
>>76614219ai and international work from home will end all office jobs in 10 years. it would have happened sooner but it was delayed so as not to crash the economy and the commercial real estate market. things will transform slowly. best find a job that a robot can't do while you still can. in the near future, only those with jobs will have any chance of being wealthy.
>>76614219Bullshit job haver, begone.
>>76613707I have other things I wish to do with my life and can't commit to a 20 year work contract because it would fuck that up.
>>76614246then theyll pay like dogshit. The job is objectively over taxing, the only reason people do it is because of the decent money for barely any formal education. Once that changes youre just a slave nigger
>>76614219Imagine laughing at the people who build everything you use every day
>>76613707>He's not stonemasonmaxxingngmi
>>76614252I program computersSee? It's easy
As if slapping together shoddy homes is cool.
>>76615540Just because you couldnt do it doesn't mean i cant
all tradesmen are DYEL except for the lumberjack
>>76615540Is being homeless cool?
>>76615710Man who has never been on a construction site
>>76614252>I count money>I automate work>I log information>I operate a vessel to procure and transport aquatic foodstuffs
They look lame not cool
>>76613707Maybe if you actually reaped the benefits of building million dollar homes, not just scraps.
>>76614252I cook foodI make gamesI teach religionI arrest blacksI stock food
>>76615696>>76615811It's just the frame though. Are carpenters installing electrical lines, HVAC, plumbing, dry wall, roof, and stucco?
>>76614252Every white collar bullshit job having faggot could die overnight with their entire industries being wiped out and no one would even notice, especially tech faggots
>>76615818I have been on many and its all skinnyfat mexicans
>>76613707carpentry is based and fit ophowevermost tradies in my country hardly know their own trades and just go around doing high volumes of terrible work on places nobody wants to live in. as you rightly point out, carpentry is an ancient, essential and highly skilled profession and yet most modern carpenters spend their days knocking together prefab homes in the middle of nowhere for volume builders. people who care about the quality of their build will either build it themselves and learn the ropes or hire extremely selectivelyso here comes the truthwhat matters is not your profession but whether or not you own your own businessall good modern construction work is done by owners or small teams where the builder owns the company and supervises all employees closely. situations where those employed depend on an excellent reputation to get workmeanwhile there are no self employed social media managers or project leadsthe filter you are looking for is not whether someone works a desk job or not, but whether or not they own their own businessof course there must be an exception that makes the rule and that is the class of jobs where people can be legally held accountable: obviously we would not insinuate that air traffic controllers, surgeons and engineers responsible for designing a bridge do not have real jobs. in addition, many people will first be excellent employees for a period before accumulating the funds and momentum to start their own businessi hope you start a building company and get rich op
>>76614062>lifting 6 days a weeklol
>>76617815Dyel detected
>>76613707>nothing cooler than building a house from the ground up>carpentryI think the word you're looking for is "masonry".
>>76618259australian houses are made of paper mache and duct tape
>>76614175>have a destroyed back, knees and hips at 25 dunno man
>>76618230yes I lol'd at you because you are one
>>76613707Because carpentry is fucking gay and those belts will inevitably cause a hernia and almost every carpenter Ive met has been an utter retard with anger problems
>>76618375Your suggesting a carpenter tool bag is heavy enough to cause a hernia?
>>76613707>Building a wood houseGood goy
>>76613721100% and found it hilarious Probably laughed for 3 days straight while planning how to get us backSo he came around and said "brb and then we get serious"And then he fucked off forever
>>76613707Framers are mostly fat shlubby guys thoughI've worked in construction for a while and desu very few people are fitCertainly more than average populationThere's the occasional powerlifter or bb on gearYou can also always tell the hard workers from the perpetual ass-draggers by their forearms even if they're fat shlubby guys so that's coolIf you have a hand fetish it's a great career path
>>76613707>Mfw I am a construction estimator Ironically chad profession and career path. You get to study engineering but are not stuck doing none stop site inspections for minor works. Tender walks once a month at most to get out of the office. Will never be replaced by AI. Can work from home. Will always be an asset to any company. All other white collar professionals around you are normal, sane people with the onions faggots filtered out long ago. Can stick to fitouts/small newbuilder $5-10million tenders and have a relaxed career while still earning $150-200k or if you have the drive, do tier 1 project estimating for he big bucks $200k+. Ausfag dollaerydoos. I'm 33 in Sydney on $180k + bonus doing nothing but D&C works for shopping centers and malls.

>>76618602cute pup!
>>76613707>Why aren't you a carpenterI am.
>>76618448Yes. Day in day out it will cause a hernia just like cops get
>>76615885>no one would even noticeYou have no idea how the world works, which isn't surprising for a tradesman.
