This statement is said by a middle aged boomer or older Genx man in a suit, who’s never worked on a construction site a day in his life. This statement is also said by upper middle class conservatives and podcast bros while behind closed doors they’re sending their children to Ivy League school.So I guess we’re going to just have a whole bunch of construction workers and healthcare workers?? your aI pRoOf rEcCeSSiOn pRoOf jOb doesn’t really exist in a capitalistic system anyway. But you know, you can’t tell the average American this because it’s socialism.
>This statement is said by a middle aged boomer or older Genx man in a suit, who’s never worked on a construction site a day in his life. Then why is he covered in dirt?
>>521003682Because he’s a tv star with makeup artists on the crew.
>>521003682>why is he covered in dirt?Stage makeup
>>521003612total kike death
>>521003612All true plus be prepared to work where no one can speak more than broken english.
>>521003612He's literally a theater kid. Complete faggot and boomers eat it up because he matches the aesthetic
I find it interesting how America thrived on innovation, and now that same country that innovates for centuries is pushing its youth to be plumbers and construction workers like it's a soviet republic. Amazing.
>>521003612>just learn to code bromassive amounts of people entered the profession and wages dropped>just be a tradie bromassive amounts of people will enter the professions and wages drop (it's also heavily unionized)
>>521003612Pipelining is the good life. Out in the sticks, fishing holes nearby and some brews with some bros after work, decent food too. Wouldn't trade it for anything desu
>>521004832Skip the liquid jew and hanging with your butt buddies and ya the job might be ok
>>521003612>who’s never worked on a construction site a day in his life.Patently false, there's an entire TV show of Mike Rowe working one day on many different construction sites and various other blue collar work besides. #Deboonked>>521004199We let the long march through the institutions just kinda happen because learning is gay or whatever, so now there's just no other path to prosperity for a young man. Every office job has HR manning the gates and requires going through an increasingly feminized higher education that seems to hate young men in every possible way. At least in blue collar you can just get an apprenticeship, spend your time mostly around other dudes and have a chance at starting your own business some day. Good luck taking your 20 years of experience at a hedge fund and starting your own, for example.Although of course there's other factors, mainly fear of automation, but also the ever-spiraling cost of higher education and the attendant debt, competition with jeets, etc.And the pressure from above is pretty simple, stated accurately and succinctly by Mr Rowe; the infrastructure that delivers modern convenience doesn't fucking build itself. If there isn't a class of welders, pipefitters, electricians, plumbers, machinists, construction crews, on and on, then all this shit we've gotten accustomed to having will just fall apart and not be replaced. There aren't enough men doing this and probably we will still lose stuff even if a big push is made right the fuck now. Again this is Mike Rowe's stated, explicit reason for creating his foundation, there is a huge skills gap and he is terrified that it's going to destroy America's standard of living - and he's right to be scared.
>>521003612>tip your supervisorlol, wonderful shitpost, no way did he say that
>>521004199poolside laptop jobs and jeet coded AI are not "innovation". those things don't make a country run, plumbers and construction workers are what make a country run.
>>521003612Everyone i know in the trades looks miserableI have a genuine interest in learning how to build homes, but I'm pretty sure if i go to school for it i'm gonna just learn to do it as a hobby and keep my job office job.The people I've met in the trades claim they make good money but won't be honest about the hours and the actual take home pay after taxes and health/dental.It's crazy how family and white people in general gaslight eachother. As shitty as the jews are they really look out for eachother.
>>521003612they just want men to lift up the society from a collapse, after they sucked up everything dry when they were young, they want you to destroy your body to pay for their mortgages through rent, because they know if it collapses they are the first to get hanged. A man going to trades now is a cuck, doing so while women are making same or double by dancing in offices and nodding in zoom calls, let it all burn
>>521006776>claim they make good money it's inferiority complex, they know they are less in society hierarchy so they compensate by saying they make good money. they destroy their bodies, waste shitton of money on alcohol to cope too.
In the UK tradies make more than graduates on average.
>>521007402It's funny because i don't really make great money, but i also only work a part time office job that has pretty great benefits and decent hourly pay. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility but realize i should be better about my financial planning and investments.That being said these same people would always say they're "killing it" and constantly getting new trucks they can't afford. Anyways whenever a new Panda Express or Gas Station popped up in these people town out in the middle of nowehre, and they'd have those "Now Hiring, Manager positions startin at $15/hr", these same people asking me to quit my job with benefits paying more than that would be contemplating applying or even openly gushing at the thought of getting hired at a fucking panda express or quiktrip.
>>521003612I'm a blue collar worker and I would recommend it desu. I work on oil rigs and get paid pretty well for not very taxing work. Most of my day is breaks, toolbox talks, monitoring machinery or waiting for someone else to finish their job before I can do mine.
Construction is one of the first fields to get rekt in a recession because it's heavily reliant on cheap debt
Trade babies know that ANYONE can do their job. I'm not talking about browns, I'm talking about the people who hire them in the first place. You can watch just a yt video and know how to weld in like 30 minutes. The problem is you won't have the tools for the job which costs thousands of $, and it makes no sense to buy them for that one job you need it for.If someone figures out a tools for hire business most tradies will get decimated. The ones need actual backbreaking work are mostly safe though.
>>521003612The whole “muh trades” nonsense is the system’s last and final gaslighting attempt before they’re forced to acknowledge this is an actual depression, and they will only ever just straight up admit “yeah there’s no jobs lol” when they’ve perfected the A.I. scam to a level where they can reasonably shift the blame on every position. The point where they admit the actual state of the economy is when the elites liquidate their assets into offshore bank accounts and flee to their bunkers in New Zealand, and things will be breaking down to such an extent that there will be mass unrest and chaos as everyone is scrambling for basic resources. Trades are not “A.I. proof”, they are not “recession proof”, and no one is hiring for these dogshit positions to begin with because there’s an endless supply of labor from all over the planet. It has the same problem as everything else in that you are forced to compete with what is essentially slave labor for positions that aren’t even open to start with. Always push back on the shills trying to ignore and downplay an economic catastrophe by pretending it’s an issue of “work ethic” “personal responsibility” or some other individualistic bullshit they’ll spew to obfuscate the reality of what’s going on.
>>521003612>trades=constructionWhy do people love to talk about shit they dont have a clue about? Its not all hard manual labor. I doubt most of the shit in that meme was even said. Tip your supervisor, kek
>>521009152>If someone figures out a tools for hire businessDo you honestly not realise that already exists?
>>521007402>it's inferiority complex, they know they are less in society hierarchyLol How much do you make at your desk/counter job?
>>521009712>Why do people love to talk about shit they dont have a clue about? Its not all hard manual labor.Hardly any of it is. HSE regulations and machinery ended that decades ago. picel is the maximum I'm allowed to physically lift at work, otherwise it's a crane or forklift job. Zoomers are still terrified of blue collar jobs though
>>521003612If trades are being recommended now, it's too late to join.
>>521007402Tradies are easily replaceable because they don’t need functioning brains to do their jobs. They are in that position because they literally cannot do anything else, this is their best. Any retard can fill their position.
>>521010136Lol thisI applied for a trade school for aircraft maintenance and they don't have any class openings until 2027
>>521003612I have also never worked on a construction site and I work blue collar.The heaviest thing I pick up in a week is usually a vacuum sander.
>>521003682It's also said by midwits who cant learn to code>b-but coding is easy, anyone can do it haha it's just clacking on a keyboardOk then why does it pay so much? Why has there been a huge trend of everyone learning it, and a few years later, it still pays as much?Could it be that it can't be learned by repetition, which is how most people are used to learning in school?And if we accept as true that most people can't learn it, and many people tried and failed, it becomes self evident that the hatred towards coders is a consequence of that. SEETHE AND COPE
>>521003612For thousands of years men have carried all the burdens of providing and everything that comes with civilization. Now it's women's time to pick up the slack and carry civilization forward.My plan is to be a neet and for women wagies to pay their fair share by providing for me and everybody else in society for the next six thousand years.It's time for men to sit back, relax and take it very easy for the next two thousand years at the very least. We earned it after all.
>>521006776>As shitty as the jews areIve yet to see proof of this except low IQ /pol/ spam
>>521003612>>521003778>>521003799>>521003943i think we can all agree that all of the seconds of footage they have of him working has added up to a whole week of work so shut up about him not really working
Imagine being 35 with a back and joint inflamation of 65 from years of sanding hardwood floors for rich kikes in Hamptons. That's winning! Have another oxi pill, the pain aint so bad! Have two!! No it's not covered.
An entire thread of broke bitch wagie COPE. Little girlies drowning in student loan debt they will never pay off just so they can sit at a desk at some bullshit company making garbage pay. >waaah real work is hard >waaah your body will be broken by 32>waaah trades are easy that's why I call someone everytime my car, plumbing or electrical goes tits up The absolute fucking state of (You) prissy "men"
>>521006776Jews don't help each other lmao
>>521005507Obviously not, it”s just a parody of that Anthony Bourdain quote.
>>521011711This.Fuck this cuck.
>>521005001Nooooo you can’t just build a network of men you’d go to war with! You can’t just escape the Jew matrix by doing shit like building a house for free with material you stole off the job!!! You cant just be unable to be cancelled!!! We need to be able to take away your means of income!!!

>>521003612>Tip your supervisor.
The job market destroyed itself by focusing on profitsPaying workers is not profitable enough for them
>>521003612As someone who's spent the last 15 years welding on mine sites I can agree and disagree with you.Financially, I earn more than my friends who went to university and studied something. Physically, they all go to the gym, go rock climbing, paddle boarding, shit like that in their free time. Me? I barely have the energy left to focus on a fucking video game. I drink a lot. Way too much.I tried to get into the military when I was younger and genuinely didn't know what to do with my life. Fortunately I was rejected because I have criminal charges and a history of mental health problems and substance abuse. My friends who did make it into the military are a lot more fucked up than I am.I have never had the attention span to study, despite always having good test scores (130ish IQ) and really couldn't cope with being told what to do by people I don't respect. There probably wasn't anything else I -could- do besides getting a trade.It's a mixed bag, and anyone telling you "trades are for retards lol" or "trades are the be all and end all" are lying. You need to look at your life from an individual level and find what works for you.Now I'm learning to sail and I'm hoping to transfer my welding/maintenance skills to an entirely new field. Drinking a Stella Artois and cheap merlot rn
>>521011711My friends who work in offices (project managers, architects etc.) almost all have back problems. I've been lifting steel around this whole time, and at 35 years old I have no back pain or joint pain beside an ankle I broke hiking at 19 that gets a numb ache from time to time.Being fit, strong and active is the single biggest protection against entropy. That said, wrecking yourself to please some boomer who pays you shit is a thing too, you need to hold your own and tell them to fuck off when your body tells you no.
>>521003612Mike Rowe is no tradesman nor a friend to them. He is anti union, anti fair work practices, anti fair wages. Dude is corporate.
>>521003612It's true. i actually went into the trades and listened to this guy. the irony is that i got replaced by cheaper labor from mexico. I was discriminated more in interviews from "tradesmen" than anything. Construction trades top sources aren't blue collar workers. They arte degree carrying Engineers and Architects.The irony is that the highest paid white collar jobs in construction (real estate) are the loosest with requiring a degree.
Theres no point in working in this country as a born citizenFirst the made women go to workThen they did affirmative actionThen they did everything to bust unionsThen came naftaThey shipped the jobs awayThen they shipped in cheap labor to take whatever jobs they couldnt outsourceAnd for what, things were suppose to get cheaper ...but they only got more expensive as now the american consumer is a commodity to squeeze till theres nothing left. Man, take the hintFuck this shit it needs to be a boycot till things are addressed
>>521011711It's not back and joint problems either. A few years ago there was a report about cancers on job sites because many workers didn't wear basic PPE when cutting marble and other material.
>>521004199world doesn't need non-whites
>>521014323only brown faggots want a "network of men"there is no necessity for men to know each other to fight for the same cause and faggots hanging out alone all the time is just homosexuality, a straight man doesn't WANT to spend all time hanging out with men, we see enough of that at work, you just wanna snuggle with non-whites like you did in the shithole you came fromwhen it's time to kill, nobody is teaming up with pajeet sukhdeep, you're gonna be the one in danger
>>521017662a gay jew told you what to do and you did itthat's all that needs to be said
>>521018335yeah we're always cutting marble on job sites, so much marble to cut, everything is made of marble these days right?
>>521006369Well yea. Like that Death Stranding game, the delivery workers is what keeps America going. Hideo Kojima was right again
>>521003612Typed on an Obamaphone.Get off EBT and get a job commie loser, or you're getting deported with the beaners
>>521003612its a really sbeaky pajeet move to time the loading of the page with the ad placement so that you accidentally click the shitty ads, like wtf are they thinking on this site
>>521018902not really? I wanted work that would be challenging. went to trade school in that direction. Nobody wants someone that wants to treat a trade like a trade. they want some stamps and a low number order to produce more margin. & maybe an extra tax break for meeting dei quotas
>>521010201Cope. I'm blue collar. You literally cannot find workers and having a retard in the position makes all of the managers lives hell. Every time i mention leaving my bosses give me more money out of fear that i will. On the flip side i have already seen several do nothing white collar people at my job get replaced by ai. If you're young and you're wondering which way to go, white collar or blue collar, the truth is it depends on the individual. There is a way to tell though. The entire American school system is built to simulate being a white collar office drone. If you hate school or find it terribly boring try blue collar work. If you love learning, books, or are super into a niche field (science, history, literature, etc) then give higher education a try.
>>521003612>work with 2 other white dudes>listen to classic country/rock all day>work for primarily white people in good areas>good money>set own hours>no hr>no dei>build shit all day it's fun>make money fixing terribly built structures in america=job security>learn how to fix your own house which they didn't teach in schooli tried a lot of stuff but the trades are pretty based
>>521003612>Go into the trades!This was just "learn to code!" 5 years ago and it's gonna end the same way. Fuck that.
>>521003612>Just work for free and be grateful for the experience, anon!What a steaming pile of horseshit. That logic made sense in the early 20th century when interning for a company was a common path to being offered a permanent and well-paying position, but that hasn't been the case for well over half a century now. Now unpaid work is just unpaid work. It doesn't lead to anything, it doesn't get you an 'in'. At best the people taking advantage of you give you an attaboy and then promptly tell you to fuck off.
>>521003612Telling, that none of the elites are sending their kids to trade schools. To become pipe fitters, carpenters, or plumbers. That's for the commoners. Bradley Edward Hampton the 4th might be a drooling idiot, but damn it he's going to Harvard, just like everyone since his great grandfather has.Do not listen to what they say, look at what they do. When the children of the trumps, bushes, Clinton's start going into the trades then maybe its worth it. Until then its meant for the peasants. Now if that's all you're capable of? Go wild hoss. Some of us have brains though.
>>521003612Mike Rowe literally started out as an opera singer.
>>521021287I came across one of the big managers on one of the sites I work at crying one day. She was head of health & safety, and 2nd or 3rd in command of HR.I asked her what was up (t. nice guy) and she told me in between snot bubbles that she was going to lose her job because someone more qualified was in talks with management.I gave her the "nah, it's ok, you're 'really good' at your job xD" and she just started crying harder and said "you don't understand, nobody can replace you, there's hundreds of people who can replace me!". I mean I'm just a fucking welder but sure enough she was laid off three weeks later.I'm not even making this up it was an actual interaction I had.>however 2 years later we had indian "welders" on the site>they had no idea what to do despite their overwhelming qualifications >I get asked to train them..>..>I get my hours cut because I cost too much and now these little faggots know what to donever, ever train an indian to do your job
>>521016536Take NAC and drink less man
"The Trades" is a meme that just gets repeated by terminally online people who know they would have failed out of college if they tried going. Trade work is hard, dirty, backbreaking labor and it fucking sucks. You're out in the elements, getting rained or snowed on, in 20 degree weather, and you're miserable. There's a reason tradesmen drink and do drugs so much, and it's because they have to numb themselves because of how miserable their lives are.Take the collegepill. If you don't want to go to a traditional university for 4 years, find a good 2 year program at a community college that will guarantee you a job. Something like Occupational Therapist Assistant or Respiratory Tech. Work inside where it's warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Don't destroy your body working with a bunch of methheads. Don't ever listen to opera singers for career advice.
>>521023345I was confused until i saw your flag. I don't think I've ever seen an indian blue collar worker in america. Usually what you describe is seen with south and central americans here. As soon as an employer brings them in eveyone knows to jump ship lol. I can guarantee that company you worked for has gone down the shitter since. My company contracted a painter that we had used for 4 years, no problem. Last year he decided to hire a bunch of illegals for the first time. They are now blacklisted because of how poorly they did. That's how it goes.
>>521023748This. College isn't at all hard. They try hard to make sure you pass after all. So you will continue on, and they get that sweet sweet government money. Only if you're an autist or OCD and have to get Latin honors. Which means jack shit to anybody but grad schools. Otherwise know what they call a guy that graduates medical school at the bottom of the class? Doctor. Which again, no one has ever asked my GPA for one. Get the right connections and network your ass off and you'll be much better off than the nerd who got straight As but can't network.
>>521024107That company has gone down the shitter, yes. They've been hemmoraging money for a couple of years and I only really see them on shut work now (over holidays where big maintenance projects go on)I think we get different immigrants too. Most of ours will tell you they couldn't afford to get to the US or Canada, and were rejected by the UK and Australia.. so they turn up in New Zealand. This country that's supposed to be some paradise at the bottom of the world somehow gets the stinkiest dumbest washout immigrants.
>>521013118This loudmouth arrogant tradie will be confined to a wheelchair and living in a homeless shelter by the time he is 40. Blue collar anon, us white collar anons are smarter and more successful than you, and you must never forget it. Now go get your shinebox.
>>521010506That's nice, Sandeep. Well, it would be, if AI wasn't replacing you guys en masse. Better learn to mine coal.
>>521024419Old welder I worked with for years just retired to look after his wife who was ill. He was 82 years old, working on mining machines his whole life. Old cunt had a 10lb one hand club hammer he'd smash steel with effortlessly.That 82 year old man would kick your fat ass.
>>521024651Oh wow an old man could swing 10lbs around im very inpressed. Comfy retirement age too lmao
>>521024125You're exactly right. People who have never been to college have really twisted ideas about it from Hollywood. They want you to pass and graduate! It looks good for them as an individual professor and an institution if their students do well. There is so much help available for students, they just have to be motivated. There are whole tutoring departments, private tutors, you can go meet with your professors and they'll help you. It's not the 1950s anymore. Regular people go to college and they want you to succeed there. I tell people to just look up the most in demand 1 year diploma programs or 2 year associate degree programs and pick something off the list they think they would like to do. You can fuck around and end up having a really great career that way.
>>521024916He was ridiculously fit and didn't want to retire. Actually told us with more than a touch of desperation that he was terrified if he stopped moving he would age rapidly and die.It wasn't financial, he owned 3 houses, was getting dividends from 40 years ago, one of the other old guys joked "he's still got the first dollar he ever earned". I don't hope to be doing this shit for that long, but those fat homos sitting in offices making posts about blue collar guys being crippled by 30 are just fucking coping hard.
>>521024651He sounds like the type of guy who would have gay sex with other men when he drove into the big city. Like he was Mr. Family Man at home, but when he went on business to the capital, he'd end up cruising for gay hookups. Am I right on that?
>when it's time to talk about what a man owes>"NATIONALISM MUH GREATER GOOD CHIVALRY CIVIC DUTY CHARITY">when it's time to talk about what a man gets in return"woah buddy you're not owed anything, it's a business not a charity"Jews have been pulling this shit for centuries, and now governments, businesses, and women all operate like this. They socialize losses, and privatize gains, and become hostile once men no longer want to carry part of their losses.
>>521025244>>521025337Isnt it obvious judging by how this young buck writes about his old massa
>>521025337>>521025444I love how much shit like that makes office nerds seethe.Another guy I knew years back was 78 years old at the time and rode his horse around to check the fencelines of his hill station every morning. I was doing casual endurance riding at the time (50km -100km semi competitive) with a top notch horse, and I followed along one day for training and struggled to keep up with him. He didn't drink a drop of water over a 6 hour ride, just drank whiskey and smoked probably 30 cigarettes. Probably 40 kilometers as the crow flies over 200m hills and ridges. >he must be gay lol XDDno not everyone thinks like you, in fact those sort of cunts would probably beat you up for talking about gay shit.
>>521025841Some real hot and heavy endurance riding Huh? you just cant help yourself
>>521016536ive been thinking about pivoting to the trades (welding specifically since my grandpa was one) but im 33 years old. do you think it's realistic to make a change like this into my 30s? curious if you've seen other people in my position at your job.
>>521025244Just dont engage with him. He probably got laid off this week because his company realized ai could do his work for pennies.Old man was smart. Longest i ever went without a job was a year (left white collar for blue). Not working for a prolonged period messes with your head and when you're old you wither away.
>>521005507>>521009712>>521005507>>521016372You do this if you donate a portion of your already poverty paycheck to money laundering organizations like the jewnited way or to someone's normie potluck or fundraiser
>>521023345Yeah same but haitians. I taught them how to weld and then i got shit on and moved around until i quit.
>>521025977I went from white to blue at 25. Try picking up some hobbies working with your hands and see if you like it.
>>521025941My point is that this whole white collar spiel about blue collar guys being 'crippled by 35' or whatever is absolute cope. It simply isn't true. I see more people crippled from obesity desu.pic related the country I was talking about>>521025977 One of my friends started a trade at 41 (builder) and hasn't looked back. It's never too late, you're never too old and as long as you can keep pushing you'll succeed. I struggle with this myself, but 35 years old I can't swim and I've decided I want to learn to sail blue water.
>>521026790>i cant swim Thats alright anon only the most advanced tradies can do that
>>521003612>Work for free tonight."No, I don't think I will.
>>521027357jej
>>521004395>>just be a tradie bro>massive amounts of people will enter the professions and wages drop (it's also heavily unionized)No, they won't, because no matter what Mike Rowe says, most people just do not want to work that hard. The trades, even in 2025, are a great option for a young guy. But just as with academia, not everyone has the aptitude for it, or the physical ability. The skilled trade jobs cannot be offshored, and they cannot be instantly overrun by immigrants. If you can stick it out and become a master plumber or electrician, you can make the bucks, you can start your own company, and best of all, you will never have to kiss anyone's ass.
>>521010201In Australia tradies make decent money and people don't look down on them.(and I'm saying that as a WFH white collar worker, in fact I'm working right now haha)
>>521026790>I struggle with this myself, but 35 years old I can't swim and I've decided I want to learn to sail blue water.You should do it, NZ is the best place in the world for sailors.
>>521010506>>521024598Learn to write
>>521003612>dont be afraid to coat yourself in another man's blood
>>521027610Literally me, I have my electrical contractors license and I have a couple decent clients. Ive been on my own since January of this year, never been happier, I do whatever I want whenever I want, nobody breathing down my neck, set my own schedule and hours, am actually technically going to turn a profit after paying my salary this year. Will clear $100k still too, shits cash
>>521010670someone go post this on plebbit the salt would be delicious
>>521025841He'd take the young cowboys way out yonder to the fenceline where his wife and the other ranch hands couldn't hear or see anything and brokeback them, didn't? Just an older experienced man teaching his young protege about life and love?
>>521027796Hell yeah dude ima do it. Next weekend I've got my level 1 course, paid for and booked, and I'll leave after 2 days with my log book and 8 hours to write in it.I honestly don't even know if I'm just going to immediately get seasick. I've hiked, done pretty serious horse riding, but the ocean scares me like nothing else. Part of the reason I want to do it, I'm bored and being absolutely terrified sounds kinda neat for a change.
>>521028647I Wonder how our little kiwi felt as he was getting ready to work the fence, assumed the half-zutt position and felt that whiskey breath on his neck and that Iron grip on his shoulder...
I'm a codemonkey and every single day I wish I got into trades instead. The benefit of CS work USED to be plentiful jobs and regular huge raises. That isn't the case anymore. Now it fucking sucks. I want out, but I'm kinda old in my mid 30's and I'm not sure I could start over in trades doing the tough grunt work they expect from a rookie. Feels bad, man.
>>521029102>>521028647
>>521003612Work a job, work two.
>>521006776>I'll just learn to build houses in schoolLol. Lmao.
>>521029491You looking a little confused there lad
>>521003612Gen X here, I worked construction 15 hard years in places that would kill most zoomer and millenial cum pussies. I saved got educated and got a better job. It still can be done. I know zoomers and millenials that arent abject weak effeminates that are doing the same as you read this. You have to stop being feminine cunts and staying at home drinking milk from your mommas teats. You have to go where the work is and live in shit holes with roomies to save up. Trades are a good idea youll make more than most effeminate office pussies. You cant be girly fags all the time pussies. You have to lift up your skirts and find you tiny little girl balls and be prepared to be uncomfortable for the first time in your cunt lives. Fuck you are all pussies.
>>521030108obviously it'd be a starting point doofus.
>>521003612trades suck ASS>inb4 everyone is a well off contractor or space welderthats not the trades experience for 98% of the tradies
>>521003612I barely made $23,000 CAD in my first year as a plumbing apprentice.
>>521033384at least you did manly mans work, lower your tone
>>521033845Plumbing was the first job where I had to borrow money to keep working. Since then I've taken the part time pill. Nothing in this country is worth that much work.
>>521031435Some things have to be learned on the job. Construction is definitely one of those things.
>31 years old>laid off from factory 2 months ago>have girlfriend but she'll probably dump me soon>planning to go back to community college>need to start making 75k+ per year or there's just no point in trying anymoreWTF do I do? I just wanted to own a tiny home (800 sq ft is fine with me) and I have 85 grand in savings ready to put as a down payment, but I can't get anything. I fucking hated my old factory job. What do I do if not a trade?
>>521034255sales/finance/IT/law/medicine DO NOT get memed into the trades unless you have contacts like family/best friend in the trade.
>>521034255anon please promise me you wont be going into the trades without contacts just to try to out slave your local illegal immigrants (pro tip you wont)
>>521026790not 35, but by 50 a lot of guys are pretty fucked up, I'm one of em.Some guys are built tough, others not so much
>>521035135>>521034424I won't. I have a lisp so I don't think I can do sales.Finance maybe if I get an associates in Math at community college.Law I lack the assertiveness for honestly.I don't want to become a doctor and deal with fat niggers with AIDS.So probably my only chance is becoming a financebot.
>>521035818you made a good choice today buddy
>>521003612You get what you reward, you have rewarded whoring around the office and social media.You dont really expect to get something for nothing do you? That would be silly.
>>521036560>you made a good choice today buddyWhat's that? Not being a tradie?
>>521031124>Leaf who had a mostly white nation until recently got to work in construction that wasn't overwhelmed with wetbacks who would brain you with drill from the top story of a structure for having the audacity to take a position his primo could have had instead.Ok, fag. Tell us how that works out now with your current levels of enrichment.
>>521003612Have two
>>521004199Problem is that the old boomer tradesmen and skilled craftsmen who did the same job and worked with their hands for 50-60 years are retiring, we actually are in a massive skilled labor shortage.Go to any american boomer house and you'll find a shed full of tools, a garage full of tools, and a basement full of tools, and there actually is a large segment of our population who would basically be handymen fixing anything and working on anything and working on whatever manual labor job was available that paid the best, all with decades of experience.We don't have them anymore, you can't find a painter in most of america for under 60 dollars an hour, can't find a plumber that doesn't charge thousands, no tradesman will take small jobs because they can pick and choose.There's such a lack of trustworthy and skilled tradesmen that even the most low-skilled of the trades still just gets job offers constantly and can pick whatever they want. My first year painting I got propositioned by like 2 or 3 people offering me jobs because they saw me just painting (poorly) my uncle's house. Skilled tradesmen, and ones that aren't alcoholic thief methheads, are in high demand in the USA. All of ours are retiring with no replacements.
>>521003612Hunt down and kill the people who advocate trades.
>>521037991>>521004199This is the kind of shit a relatively wealthy and educated and aging workforce will do btw, old people can't find any young people to maintain their houses or cars. I also know a guy who has a lawnmower repair business, only one within 50 miles really that's a brick and mortar shop, and he bought out the other 3 lawnmower businesses because they were all closing, he's got the last lawnmower/ small engine shop for miles but he's retiring and there's nobody to buy it.When your population gets too wealthy and educated and there's no tradesman culture anymore you're in trouble, and america really is. This will 100% make housing prices go higher, along with basic home maintenance.
>>521034116whatever u gotta tell urself to justify being an apprentice bitch boy for a bunch of drunk boomers.
I've never met a smart Tradie.
I’m a neet. I’ve worked a lot over the years, but I just can’t do it anymore. I saved enough that I can live humbly without burdening anyone. I have no kids to support, but I still feel a bit guilty.The thought of doing a Joe job sends shivers down my spine. I think I’d rather die. I just don’t have the temperament anymore.I have zero friends, zero social life and few expenses and I’m oddly content. Work was a soul killing nightmare for me, but I did it long enough to buy a home and made a nice profit on it. I sold and moved somewhere cheaper.
median tradesmen make $60k, but you never hear that mentioned>but you can start your own business and make lots of money!thats true of any industry niggahttps://www.bls.gov/ooh/construction-and-extraction/plumbers-pipefitters-and-steamfitters.htmhttps://www.bls.gov/ooh/construction-and-extraction/electricians.htmhttps://www.bls.gov/ooh/construction-and-extraction/carpenters.htm
the money in trades is in having your own business. There is a world of difference between working at a company making 30-50 an hour for your boss doing what he tells you vs having 4-5 guys working for you and going back and forth between them to make sure they arent fucking everything up then taking home 10k a month.Like if you dig ditches for a living you make minimum wage or say 20$ an hour. Real world example: say it will take you 4 hours to do the work digging a hole to get at a pipe for maintenance. but your boss is being paid 200$ to dig the hole and fidget with the pipe which he does himself in like 45 mins. so he pays you 20x4 (80$) then gets paid 120$ for his 45 mins of work fidgeting with the pipe.Thats where the money in trades is, managing a bunch of drugged up fuck ups (unless your some code inspector guy but nevermind that)
>>521039619>thats true of any industry niggaright but with trades you learn almost everything you need to know to run the business while you work for the business. vs being a low skilled pencil pusher where you learn no skills except how to navigate microsoft word or whatever.
>>521003612>tip your supervisorlmao even
>>521003612Total Kike Death is the only solution to save the white man.
>>521004199Who id supposed to till the fields in the White ethnostate?
>>521042345Orania manages just fine.
>>521003612you would have to be a turbo retard to not grasp that propaganda like this serves to have a simple minded population that doesnt ask questionstheres nothing a dictatorship hates more than people with uni degreesbecause if you can get a uni degree you can think and if you can reason you can question emotional propaganda and questioning propaganda is subversiveThis pattern is seen everywhere. egypt, maoist china, the USSR, nazi germanyAll in line with the Yarvinian homostate
>>521043468> University degrees aid in thinkingThey are designed to do the opposite, Shlomo.
>>521043628>erm actually your stupid if you HAVE a degree.... which means im smartSuch thinking is the mark of the slave.The slave, without its master, can only be unhappy.
>>521003612the construction industry is how i earned enough to have a deposit for the farm. 13 years of busting my guts and being tighter than a kikes arsehole got me to a point where i could bust my guts and have to be tighter than a kikes arsehole for another 7 years to pay out the loan. it's fucked that you need to break yourself to provide a decent upbringing for your kids, but one and done. none of my kids will have to do it, so it was all worth it
>>521003612delightful synthesis
how many goat dicks do you cut and suck before you are mike rowe worthy
>>521003612Look at them yo-yos, that's the way you do itYou play the guitar on the MTVThat ain't working, that's the way you do itGet your money for nothing and your chicks for free
>>521003612It's really not bad guys. Better than being some office fag who wears illfitting buisness casual and has bad posture and everyone thinks is a closeted man
>>521045258Not so easy in USA with the spics
>>521047826THAT LITTLE FAGGOT
>>521003612I trademaxxed after getting out of the Army. No regrets, and I don't need a suit.
>>521003612>be open to jobs you may not agree with reminds me of sport in taxi driver telling iris “baby i wouldn’t want you to enjoy it”.
