You're right niggas. Don't enter the trades. Stay in your cool air-conditioned office with Karol from HR. We'll take it from here.
>>539140801>UD Union Duesmeaning>not self-employedyoure just a wagie with a tool bag you moron. aspire to ownership
>>539141853He's making a 100 an hour with overtime. That's better than 99% of people here. You are just a salty contrarian
>>539141853>>UD Union Dues>meaningmeaning my pension is FAT, my healthcare is diamond-tier, and I'm basically unfireablekeep coping poor retard. I'm sure your 70k a year job pattering on the keyboard is real fulfilling
>>539141948>>539141986lets remember that>wagieis not defined by what you do. it is defined by the structure of your employment. do you have an employer who removes taxes from your paycheck? if yes, you are a wagie. what you do to earn income does not matter
>>539140801They are really not cut out for the trades. A handful of them can pull it off, but very few.
>>539142075couldnt make it, huh?
>>539140801Tradie here, I hate niggers like you. Union nigger myself as well, and i am hoping to leave the trades because of RETARDS like you. It doesn't matter what you do to get money retard, stop having pride in the niggerslave shit we need to do to get money
>>539142075bud you still have to pay taxes as self employment>t self employed
>>539140801>wagie works 12 hours per day for maybe 200k a year>he thinks its a flex
>>539142263>Tradie hereok>Union niggerdon't trash the union, you shitstained filth, you are unworthy.>i am hoping to leave the tradesWe don't want you. You were never one of us anyways
>>539142322math is not your strongsuit, is it?
>>539140801>6days>67,5 Hourskek
>>539140801I make way more than you, only work 15-20 hours a week, get to sit inside and air conditioned building, and never worry about my body getting destroyed.
>>539142381>don't trash the unionCommie
>>539142454>>539142569I don't see any paystubs, poorfags
>>539140801>All that ot>Spends his off time bragging about itYou better get some sleep or tomorrow will be hell on you op unless you do meth or some other stimulant .
>>539142619get back to work, nigger
>>539142626overtime is optional and i'd be retarded to turn down $100/hr16 posts in and nothing but a wall of wagie copes its quite amusing
>>539142178enjoy your weekend and your cope thread bitch. shlomo wants you there by 9 on monday, and dont forget your tools.
>>539142699Good on you. What's the actual job though?
>>539140801Good job man. Dump it all into your brokerage and buy QQQ/SPY/GLD. Live below your means and once you are banked up work self employed on custom jobs with top dollar customers that can give you referrals.Proud of you man, nice to see a post like this amongst all of the Chinese funded demoralization propaganda.If you dont mind me asking why did you get paid double time for 8hrs? Did you sign up for a special task or do you automatically get DT for any OT past 19.5 in a week?
>>539142761>enjoy your weekendwill do>cope threadits terrible making all this money. I wish I got a philosophy degree instead!>shlomo wants you there by 9there are exactly zero jews in the trades. Jews can't into manual labor. I take 4 months off a year too btw, taxpayer funded (I claim unemployment after the job ends) LOL>your toolsYou think union men BUY their own tools? What am I some asshole?
>>539142944i wouldnt know. unions are for fags and wagies
>>539140801that's not too bad. That's what I clear every week too.the difference is I get to sit on my ass at home with my family and watch movies or do whatever.
>>539142921Double time can be over a certain number of hours, if you're traveling, Sundays/holidays. Union and government jobs have all kinds of ways to milk OT.>>539142944Enjoy all the sour-grapes posts from unemployed and unemployable virgins.Save and invest as much as you can.
>>539142921>buy QQQI'm raw dogging VTI rn. Was big on Nvidia but sold my shit when it hit 190. Going to invest in utilities next to anticipate the huge gains to accomodate the data centers. By the time most of these niggers are done with their degrees I'll be retired>double timewe get double time for bad weather, unscheduled work, time past 60, or on Sundays. OT for anything over 8, 40, or Saturdays.
>>539143056>That's what I cleari'm trying to refresh the page, but i still can't see the paystub. Maybe I should try a new browser? Help me anon
so 5 12s and an 8 hour day on the weekend? i'm content with my straight 40, thanks, enjoy your knees locking up by 45
>>539143280>paystublol
>>539140801only thing im jealous of regarding tradesfolk is the ability to do O.T. only had this ability a couple of times during white collar work and they were stingy with it
>>539140801>A bunch of drunk thieving micks, spics and niggersI ain't walking on your bridge
>>539140801>Larping on a Friday night. >MUH SCREENSHOTZ!!!Pathetic. At least post bank statements.
>>539142381>you are unworthyOk boomer
>>539142699Post savings. Post portfolio. Post house.
>>539140801thanks for your cervix bro but i make more than that and work from home for 40 hours
>>539144224but can you slam a fifth of vodka
>>539140801>OT>1867Tiresome>union dues>"heath welfare"Fuck right off
>>539140801I made $200 an hour writing for a lawyer. You're a fucking moron.
>>539141948Every single fucking loser on this board claims to make 300k or whatever and they will never ever ever admit they "could make 300jk if they worked 100 hour weeks every year" or "had my best sales of the year every week" and actually make more like 100k or less at best.Every single one.And that's being generous because the median income us around 39k and average income is around 48kAll you faggots do is lie constantly.
>>539144368everyone knows how valuable lawyers are
Congrats on working 60+ hours a week. I mean your pay is good, but a lot of people make the same working 40 and not on weekend or overtime.
>>539144437depends on where it's at, city money is worth less
OP gave up on his cope thread. it was probably against union rules
>>539144465Yeah but time is the ultimate currency and I would never go back to working over 40 hours a week again. I did that shit in my 20s for much less. 50+ hours over many many weeks becomes miserable. Don’t even get me started on 60-70-80 hour weeks. You just become a husk.Again, I’m glad this guy is at least compensated for it. But I’m more than happy making 6 figures and working 40 hours from home these days. Like many said, it’s truthfully like 20 hours of real work.
>>539144371they claim to make 100k*. If they're a "software engineer", they claim 120k.>>539144437>>539144368>>53914422440 posts in and I'm the only one who posted paystubs. Truly an enlightening experience.>>539144307>union duesYes, we love the Union>"heath welfare"That is added ontop of my paycheck to be utilized as I see fit. Just like the pension, that is not a deduction. Keep up, anon.
>>539144586But you didn’t post the FRUITS OF YOUR LABOR. You make gorrilion dollars a year. Cool. Until you’ve accrued a house. Land. Hard value cash (And even THAT will be useless by 2030) . Until then you’ve just been working.
>>539144586>40 posts in and I'm the only one who posted paystubs. Truly an enlightening experience.having one source of income isn't the flex you think it is bud
>>539144586>I'm the only one who posted paystubsunion nigger, it'd take five minutes in MS Paint to replicate what you posted. it doesnt mean shit
>>539144856>>539144959yawn
>>539140801https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kbkysPTnHcSocial media has primed an environment where this type of degeneracy is not only accepted, it thrives. Social media desensitizes and radicalizes even moderates into believing heinous and abhorrent behavior is acceptable under the correct context. Spend just 5 minutes on Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, you will find hordes of these deranged people. They exist among us. The FBI knows about them but never acts until it is far too late. Western society is on a one-way fast track to collapse as long as social media continues to destroy minds and decay the culture.
>those wagesDo you need a journeyman aluminum welder or red seal electrician by any chance please
>>539145052>yawnOk. Now you.
>>539145052>yawni'd be that tired too if I had to work 67.5 hours to get what I make sitting at home on my ass playing arma reforger.
>>539145189i'm not trying to rain on your parade (like you fags desperately want to lul) but you do realize 100k isn't much to someone making 300k?
>we're posting screenshots nowlets do mortgages!
>>539145189i'm going to make you richer. buy a few btc and sell at 180k.>>539145277this is how I know you're actually poor because you're wrong there
>>539140801I make low 6 figures, used to be a pipe fitter and the union paid the rest of my 2 years in school. I'm certified in 2g,5g,6g stick, had to wait for work to become available as a newbie, this was post 2008 stock market crash. became a software engineer in the meantime, now I'm at a healthcare organization, there are only 8 devs so I will never get laid off because we still have enough work to hire 2 more devs. I also work from home, don't pay a fuck load of fuel to commute to my fucking worksite and work overtime lmao. I'm content with my 35 hour work week, really 30 with the effort I put in, with zero fucking overtime and I log off in my house. I'm maxing out 401k, HSA, and putting 1k towards a personal brokerage account every month too. fuck working 800 hours.
>>539145374
What do you do though?
>>539145492post your mortgage!
>>539140801very nice. especially bragging about it on a glownigger honeypot. good work
>>539140801You worked 67.5 hrs You are a slave
>>539145189Saved, ill repost once I run it through gimp
>>539142699It’s never in good taste to brag.
>>539142699I'm sure you can afford it.
>>539140801you got me by 10 bucks an hour but your dt and ot don't add up right, 19.50 would be 20, then DT but i am also not in a union and work, need that cush union job
>>539145727>>539145615>>539145612>>539145611i find you all unimpressive.
>Be me>Financial Controller>110k/yr>36hrs/wk>0 body wear>0 stress>0 overtime>complete autonomyDon’t fall for any physical labor jobs or heavy OT jobs unless you are your own boss. Your body is the only thing you truly own and your time is the only thing you cannot buy.
>>539145344I did bad with the house, man. sold my home in january 2021 literally right before the area took off.the couple that bought my home sold it for just at 100k more than they bought it for a year later.then I finally bought a house when prices peaked and had to buy my rate down to 5.6%, the guy I bought the house from made 70k after just a year.still pisses me off.
Advertising so hard to prove others can make easy moneyNever in the history of mankind this is not a scam
Thank you for your service.
>>539145793As if I care what you find impressive
>>539145511>>539140801Reminder that the median electrician wage is only $62K. That's including all of the Boomer Union dinosaurs. Where I'm from, I've seen electrician apprenticeships start at $14/hour lol. Walmart fucking starts at $16/hour.
>>539145871Will I get a medal? What an honor.
>>539140801Nice pay check
>>539145794>>539145834It's all bullshit anyways. "Do a trade bro" towards Zoomers is like what "Just go to college bro" was for Millennials. The fact that it's shilled so hard shows there's actually no money in it.
pay whores upfront rather than lose half at the endbuy bulk land, as much as possible, in bumfuck outright as soon as you have the chancet. 7 day weeks, 51 weeks/year, nine years straight "retired" at 28 and now play farmer and raise my kids. you can do it anonwagmi
>>539145793just say you rent bro!
>>539140801I love these threads. It proves to commutards that they've never actually lived under capitalism.

>>539140801Hey OP do you buy fun things eith all that money. I just got one of those pellet smoker grills things. Its pretty sweet...
>>539145277Who’s having a parade? Obviously 100k is small potatoes. But do you see me making threads about how “EVERYONE IS POOR LAZY BROKE FAGGOTS!!” like you ? Of course not. That’s silly. Thats pointless. That’s insecure. Money isn’t the end all be all. Having it is great. But what you do with it is what matters. So. In summary, if I, the modest indiscreet “wagie” has a few dollars saved up, then clearly you, The Great Earner can surely muster up a receipt or two, highlighting the vast amount of wealth one in your position accumulates, yes?
>>539146238oh please you are union it takes 9 of you to watch one person work, and all 9 have titles
>>539146238It’s only stressful if you’re shitty at math or cannot handle time management.
>>539146364yeah but cucks in texass make 16 dollars an hour welding lmao
>>539146337>tries to flex>follows up with "That’s insecure. Money isn’t the end all be all.">>539146334i fuck hookers in mexico city and do shittons of cocaine. The rest gets invested
>>539146364>backbreaking labor>union guys are overpaid and lazy, sitting around all dayseems a bit contradictory.
>>539146486*yawn*Now you
>>539146533yea its tough watching that guy work and hold down the shovel so it doesn't float off
I make more than that working from my air conditioned home.
>>539146486Noice.. that cocain is gonna melt your brain though by the time you hit your 40s. One of my buddies is kinda fucked up from it.. it might be a good idea to dial the hard drugs back.. i mean even weed can fuck you up if you do too much of that into your old years.. glhf
>>539140801>MS paint is now threadworthy>>539145052>>539145189>>539146559Btfo faggot larping ops brown ass lmao
>>539146603very true. going to scale back. going to start getting into fishing again, maybe buy a boat>>539146806union payscales are publicgood work falling for jewish propaganda. I hope not everyone is as weak minded as you.
>70 hoursLmao
>>53914194850 a hour retard, 3500/70
>>539146238I’ll speak as I please. You are a cold turd on a paper plate
There's a 100% chance you're addicted to energy drinks and/or meth (Adderall counts) People with real degrees and skills such as engineers are going to bang your wife when you can't walk you fucking hick
>>539142319When your employer takes the taxes out and reports what you earn, then that's that. But when you work for yourself, you can live like it's 1830.
>>539147275odd dinner you got there
>>539147426>live like it's 1830.I mean the era before any income taxes, that is.
>>539140801You're from California, specifically you're in the IBEW Local 11The Union Dues are 3.5% of your pay, and your standard pay rate is $63.83/hour190.43/5441.51 = 0.03499 = 3.5%
>>539147416No, it's Cocaine and hookers in his case.As seen:>>539146486
>worked a 70 hour weekI'm sticking with 76k wfh. I spend almost all day jerking off and playing video games, maybe an hour of playing with spreadsheets and a thirty minute meeting. I'm happy you're happy with the money you make, I'm also happy that I get paid to basically live the neet life with a few chores.
>>539140801this pays as much as a basic software engineering job
>>539148749if i were a doctor you'd ask why I'm not a CEO meanwhile you're a NEET
>>539147832OP fucked up
>>539148877i'm not a NEET. i make $100k working as a software engineer, remotely. maybe a few hours of real work per day. lots of naps. it's not the best job but it's very low stress and i often do it literally in bed or on the couch. maybe you could call this a NEET lifestyle if you are used to physical labor. i am basically a paid hermit
>>539144586>If they're a "software engineer", they claim 120k. 160k. But that's with 15+ years exp. That said, I am not earning anywhere near what I could be. Local medians for the same job title at big companies are more in the $250k-$300k range.Wfh but no air conditioning.
