Alright, time to redpill some Jow Forumstards

Can't wait for SHTF and all these college faggots can't even change a tire without an app

It's already starting. Life expectancy has declined the past 3 years due to increase in suicide and drug overdose.

This but I’m in no position to speak because I made no meaningful career advances without it. Now I’m about to flunk out from never attending the classes because I’m a sack of shit that will either have a panic attack or be completely unable to focus when I do since I should be a graduate at my age and all I can think about In college is how I don’t deserve to exist.

Ya I've been a tree climber and used to work with a lineman. We both agree that we'd rather be a philosophy major than doing this shit for another 30 years, if the body can even last that long. But ya sure keep convincing weak biz kids that this shit work will make them men.

Well, I didn't mean that literally. I mean just the middle class exhausting itself financially due to delusions, and most of it just going back to being poor.

Lol quality bate

And dumb fucking rednecks can't run a computer to save their lives. The closest they ever get is tuning they're gay ass trucks from all that sweet oil and gas money. Which then get repo'd because most people in the trades are co-tech dipshits that couldn't bother to learn that the industry is cyclical so they go broke like the degenerates they are.

Joe works 30 years as his salary caps out at the equiveleant of a mid-level college grad. He’s been doing shitty awful painful work for years and isn’t smart enough for the very limited management positions available in his field. He gains an addiction to opiates since his body is so rundown from manual labor for 12 hours a day. Joe hates his life and all of the meaningless “toys” he bought to stave off the pangs of his unfulfilled life cannot be used because he can barely walk due to his knees and back.

Jim is working a cushy office job and his biggest fears are carpal tunnel syndrome and whether or not he’s going to the office ski trip this Saturday

Joe fucked up his back and is addicted to opiates.

Ah, I see we're from the same town.

Why is it always the extreme?
Why are people working trades always sub 90IQ retards?

I personally prefer common sense over plain book wisdom.

Ironically, philosophy undergrads (with JUST an undergrad degree) earn a shit ton of money. I don't know why people give philosophy majors such a hard time. Give the gender studies majors a hard time or something.

kek whatever you say dumbass. Soon Ranjeek curryweather will replace you, if not him something else will.
>muh codez

You really want your mind blown? Go check out the amount of billionaires who studied history and philosophy as undergrads.

I don't have a degree and I get paid 90k a year for setting up computers for businesses mostly banks . I barely do any labour.

What do you say to this:

Got an apprenticeship in blue collar job
Did Computer Science degree afterwards
Never ever had debt

I am God Tier

Ups driver here.

Started driving at 21. Made 60k my first year. Topped out at 26 year old making 90k. We get COLA raised every year. Last year I cleared 99k.

Because I was able to make a lot younger, I’m in a much better spot than my friends. I bought a house when housing was cheaper, i made some other investments ect. I still make much more than basically every college grad I personally know. I pay 0 for amazing insurance. Ooo ya, 6 weeks paid vacay

And due to the
>muhhh hardwork
I’m in amazing shape in my mid 30s.

College is a fucking scam. Even if you get a nice engineering degree ect your still somebody’s bitch, answering phone calls and emails at all hours and on weekends, paying for your health care, and can’t take a vacation because you have “projects” going on

go shit in the street

>'No degree'
>90k/y
>No labour
>'Set up computers'
>'Banks'

You absolutely have a degree, if not that then some kind of qualification on a piece of paper you use to show your worth that you payed money for.

Checked and not jew brainwashed

I was unironically making more shingling roofs than I am as a chemical engineer, but that shit is temporart and you look around at the guys still labouring at 50 and their all busted up alcoholics drinking the aches and pains away. Not much upward mobility in it but if you can get your own business running before your body breaks down you do end up beating most STEM careers in the end. That isn't every dope who decides to pick up a hammer though. Plenty of them just slave their whole career and don't save a dime.

Not that user but I only have my high school certificate and i do IT for a trading firm.
They paid me peanuts but after 3 years ive been bumped up to 80k

Weird how all the smart people end up being socialist.

I don't do that low level CRUD shit. I'll be fine.

???
I mean my cal2 professor is an open communist but most of the successful postgrads I met aren’t socialist at all

>smart

A majority of people on campus can't even spell eye correctly, fuck most don’t even know who Joe Biden was until recently

Thats because you hang out with fellow brainlets while you get your bullshit degree.

Watch out we got a badass over here

Birds of the same feather flock together. YOU are the brainlet user.

>implying all degrees are shit
>implying most people aren’t brainlets

Btw I don’t actually go to college, I’m just close to one, and I’m around these retards all day, they seem to think the world is a literal cartoon. I don’t even hang out with any of them I just happen to be near them

a lot of them are smart but doesn't mean they can't get brainzogged.
adult in position of trust tells fresh 17/18 year old something, they will believe it, like they have done in school from age 5.

They don't, they become ideologues and it just so happens that the ideology common in colleges is Marxist in nature. Intelligent people become ideologues because they are able to understand and commit to it.
There are fewer right wing ideologues because it isn't fashionable.

Do not mistake ideologue for useful idiot, by the way.

we make more than the average jim you're all underpaid

Employer here. It doesn't, really. All I really care about is your experience, your skills and how much it's going to cost me to put you to work. In most cases just having a degree and fast food/barista/college mcjob experience tells me you don't know what you're doing and you're going to be a pain in the ass to train.

$50/hr isn't $230k friend. if you're working 70 hour weeks you should probably admit that when you post "average pay".

50hr+ taxable 50+ in untaxable do you read these ?

I think it’s a bit silly to talk about an nyc union and include benefits as part of your salary. If that’s the case I’m making 100k in the Midwest

> i can draft shit in cad, revit, or bim learned it for free

Well obviously I wasn't talking about you. I'm talking about the dude that live's for skoal, pop-country and rolling coal. Fuck those fags. They're also fat as fuck and can't walk to their tree stand without stopping for a break to take a sip of coke. They're not as bad as 3%'ers though, but they're close.

> t.pennsyl-tuckian

And I'm all for tradesman and unions. That is obviously a legit career. I just have a particular hate for "handymen" because they're usually shitbags who rip people off. I've worked for enough of them over the years (not proud of it either but ya gotta eat). But now I go out of my way to fuck them over. They deserve it.

most of america are privately insured i'm paying out of my wages they;re not ? many americans pay in to iras with their wages. i pay into an annuity. most americans dont get to pay in to pensions.

but you dont count that money when you do your taxes ? lol ok makes sense

an intelligent man, Ivan

I'm pretty much this, though I'm only at 55K in Ohio. I'll get to 100K eventually for sure though, 2 years ago I made $12/hr. It's a lot of work and uncertainty based on promises from employers though, luckily, most of which for me have panned out.

Eh, I get paid to think, you get paid to do bitch work. I also make double what you make but you're salary isn't bad for bitch work if you don't mind doing mindless task all day. That would bore me to tears.

Cope harder. Philosophy is the Chad tier major. Philosophy literally gave birth to western Civilization. Without the philosophy of the ancient Greeks, the Romans, Descartes, there is no fucking western Civilization.

Tradie wagie will spend his days in the hot sun, chugging monsters and living off donuts, while his sub human whale of a wife bangs Tyrone. Wagie tradie dies of a heart attack at 55 after spending his life working 90 hour weeks. Philosophy Chad dies at 95 after completing his quest to read the world's best literature in retirement and having made the world a better place in his prime years

This.
It made sense for boomers in 20th century, when you could buy a decent house after 5-10 years of wagecucking and basically live upper-high standard from mere waging.
In todays economy to afford a house and college, you have to be a top 5% wage earner.

nice larp bucko, let me see those paychecks

Philsophy is God tier if you know how to use it. Its unfortunate that most people consider it dumb. Stuff like phd in music or gender studies are absolute trash peasants.

This poster is a Jim.

Tradesmen are typically very pragmatic thinkers. They think in terms of concrete facts and things. They do not think abstractly very often (aside from laying out a plan perhaps.)

Whoever thinks a master tradesman isn't bright is pretty fucking stupid.

The only people telling people to go into a trade are people who don't and never would work in a trade.
