Places to travel to in the states for work in the trades, specifically HVAC/r? In NY, can't get a job, local union hires 5% of applicants once a year for training, and even if I did manage to get a job it wouldn't be enough to cover living expenses. So I plan on moving with this career path in mind. Where should I go?
You don't. That's why no one wants to work in the trades. Sorry bub.
>>2861917Texas, NC, Georgia. Really any of the booming states will have better prospects than a dying rust belt state (except Ohio but you'd be better throwing yourself into traffic than living in that shit hole). Places without new housing projects have terrible trades markets. Don't try Arizona or Las Vegas unless you're a beaner, you'll only get a job there as a white person if you're connected.
>>2861917NVAC is pretty much everywhere in the south, pick a city and done.>>2861974>Don't try Arizona or Las Vegas unless you're a beanerdude AZ is so understaffed in HVAC you would only say this if you go "oh yea only mexicans can work day jobs there" if you're some retard from New England
>>2862168I used to work in the copper mines in Eastern Arizona before moving to Las Vegas. Pretty much every white person who wasn't an nth generation mining redneck came in with the same story: couldn't find any decent work in the city so they made the terrible choice to come to the mines to "make a lot of money" so they could move back to the city. Wasn't just white people either, heard the same thing from blacks and Filipinos. >There's an HVAC shortage!!I'm sure that's what the local news tells you. They say the same shit here in Las Vegas but you try and get a tech job after school and every company rejects you for not having experience so you end up with a shitty job unclogging toilets at the Motel 6. The "shortage" is in people with a decade of experience. OP is experiencing first hand that these supposed skilled laborer shortages are propaganda.
