>fell for the trades meme >have to work in buttfuck nowhere Alberta and live in some shitty camp for weeks straight >make only $500/day >meanwhile university CS/engineering grads are making 150k starting and 300k after 5 years and only work 40 hours a week
I know this is an ebin trole thread but only a tiny minority of CS graduates (top of their class as the best schools) make that kind of money out of college
Colton Cook
And almost no tradies make 100k unless they own their own company. Looks like he's multiplying everything times three
Adam Nelson
is computer programming better or worse than computer science
William Hill
In the US. If they stay in Canada they're looking at 60k canabucks
Aiden Murphy
>YOU MAKE ~100k a year QUIT COMPLAINING but he's working 24/7 it's not even minimum wage
Daniel Phillips
Hey leaf dude, I can do some jobs for you and we split revenues 50/50
Kayden Campbell
You can come down to the US and work with me at Wal-Mart at $20k take home. I've been doing it for over a decade and I could definitely show you the ropes.
Owen Brooks
As far as I'm aware you work a month on an month off and while in camp you food and board are paid for and there is nothing to spend your tradie bucks on. He is making mad bank as long as he's not pissing it against the wall ever time he's off
Angel Kelly
I don't think there's much of a difference insofar as the real differentiation is between the kids who did the bare minimum and just showed up to class versus those who developed relationships with their professors, got internships, networked, etc.
Aaron Myers
Whats it feel like in Syria right now?
Asher Thompson
youre a world away...
Adrian Nguyen
Adrenaline + anxiety + unpredictability
Like the past 8 years but now the danger isn't a bunch of foreign-backed terrorists shelling peeps randomly.
Ethan Moore
What trade?
Thomas Rogers
Did assad really gas people? Are the rebels actually ISIS?
Levi Johnson
Have you seen any headchoppings in the town square or are you not in that part of Syria?
William Parker
>he doesn't know about outsourcing >he doesn't know lots of outsourced skills are shit
Logan Martinez
How the fuck is he gonna outsource Cletus' house that needs to be painted to Syria?
Gabriel Bennett
Not that part, I'm in the sane part that got shelled crazy.
That's what I thought. Are the rebels = isis? Are the rebels even syrian?
Dominic Cruz
When a weird mosquito borne disease appears in the population over there...you will make an additional 2k a month serving as a week-end lab rat.
Cup half full thinking
Robert Morgan
Can confirm, I’m a normie tier CS grad and my starting salary is 70k. Anyone who makes 100k or higher is usually a genius or has really good confidence and is able to pretend they’re smarter than they are.
Maybe I could’ve made more but I honestly didn’t want to put the extra time and work in, I don’t care at all about programming, I’m only doing it for the money.
Cooper Morgan
Does that place in no where happen to be Fort McMurray?
Oliver Sullivan
No you're not. You asked to split work with some construction worker canuck. When does engineering come into the conversation?
Ayden Morgan
At first they were Syrian. Then shit hit the fan.
Did you know... those who surrendered in eastern g. paid a humble amount of 100M USD for safe escort to northern Syria?
Caleb Morris
Instrumentation
Sometimes, but includes anywhere in Northern Alberta/BC and sometimes Saskatchewan
Evan Cruz
Making 100k is child's play in Ca. 140k is avg for camp life. 2 weeks on, 1 week off.
Aaron King
He makes some contracts, handles clients, earn the cash.
And I do the job.
Christopher Nguyen
I didn't wow. Good Luck user, I hope we never end up having to meet.
Hunter Wright
the faggots pushing the trades meme on Jow Forums are mostly NEETs who have never put in a hard days work in their lives
Kayden Robinson
I fell for the trade meme, I was only an apprentice but the money was GOOD, but the hours were horrific. 60 hours a week was the norm, some weeks up to 80 hours. Driving all around the state of florida in a white van doing installs. Then come back to the office, get in my car and drive 1 hour back on the highway home. I only lasted a month, I cannot imagine living that type of life unless I absolutely needed money because I had kids or something.
Owen Evans
What job? How can you possibly help a tradie do his work while being in Syria? I thought median household income was lower in Canada than in USA. I might be wrong then.
Blake Gomez
Yeah they were generously backed by Gulf and others.
Rather than backing hard working civilians in exchange for services.
I wouldn't help him do his job. I'd help him do the job he was whining about but can't do because of his academic and professional background. Not too bright for a Lithuanian, eh?
Aiden Evans
This
Trades are honest work, and they are important to society. However, it is surely not easy money, it's hard grueling work which often takes you from your family. If you have the brains, put in the effort to become an engineer or doctor if you want to make money. If you don't think you can excel at that academic level, you better be ready to work hard as a tradesmen.
I'm surely not against trades but in Canada there is about to be four qualified workers for every job opening because of the big rush into trades...It's not some easy cash cow
Zachary Sanchez
Most trades avg $35-50 hr in Ft McMurray Camp jobs. 150-200k / year during good times is not uncommon but prices of homes etc are much higher
Christian Jenkins
On the bright side, you're close to where Jordan Peterson grew up. I can only imagine Alberta from here.
You want him to get a engineering job without any experience, knowledge or qualifications and then do the actual work that he is supposed to be doing? You seem to be the dimwit here. That is not possible.
Noah Thompson
No, residential electricians make that easily per hr. Different trades, different money. In mine (Crane op) money can scale depending on machine size
Juan Cox
Jesus. Guess I have to paint it for ya the ghetoo way:
Does a drug dealer know how to make drugs?
Chase Reed
FPBP
Fucker is making 10k a month and still complains. OP must be jewish, for they are never satisfied.
Jace Reed
Do you feel with confidence that a lot of the pictures we see in Western media of gassed children have been faked? Perhaps not even taking place anywhere in Syria to begin with?
Sebastian Williams
kek
Adrian Ramirez
Syrian people, definitely taken in Syria.
Strong tendency to believe it was staged, when there are LITERALLY millions of dollar in play.
Our gov balance quadrupled with the money those rebels and terrorists paid for safe escort away from gov territories.
Angel Harris
Can you just make your point clear without trying to sound cool?
Jaxson Adams
My son came home today and showed me pic related. The district we live in is building a new middle school and needs a name. Can we pull off a Robert E. Lee Elementary 2.0?
Mason is nightmare fuel but electrician is comfy. No heavy loads on you and your job is well appreciated by customers because it is the most visible one.
A wall of brics is less impressive than well lit rooms.
T. Electrician
Ryan Sanders
holy fuck its true
Ryan Miller
so do you think the war is phony? That the govt is corrupt allowing the enemy to pay their way to safety? Or is this to say the rebels are backed by money from elsewhere
Gavin Nguyen
He handles business, I handle actually doing the work, we split the cash. Further explaining the innerworkings of this Quantum physics phenomenon is beyond my paygrade.
Nathaniel Russell
>500 a day whats the issue
Lincoln Nguyen
You must have not got the memo. The illuminati PC feminazi overlords have decided that CS isn't for white males.
Hudson Ward
The rebels WERE backed from somewhere else. Using muh dead children for siphoning out more money from the west, and stupid religious agendas for siphoning money from the east.
All while unionically killing civilians (including children) in govt controlled areas, excuse? They're too safe and must taste the hell we are going through!!1
Jonathan Russell
Had a friend that did this, usually they just blow it on cocaine/other drugs they start doing while at camp
Landon Bell
Mayhaps you picked the wrong trade?
Joshua Watson
So a freelancer engineer? Didn't know that was a thing. Even then, don't you think your business partners would want the engineer to be a licensed and qualified one? And no your Syrian uni degree does not count.
Joseph Taylor
Yeah, many young men in trades don't know fuck all about saving money. I come from a big fishing town, where you got 19 year olds making almost 100k in one summer, and then they buy a truck, and a fourwheeler, and ring the bell at the bar a bunch (buys everyone a drink), buy a fuck ton of drugs, party recklessly for a couple weeks.
Aaaaaaand, it's gone. Time to bum around tell next fishing season!
Ryan Lee
Who gives a shit if it matters? Don't have to be licensed also.
>implying a Chinese imageboard is now LinkedIn
Just throwing this one out so maybe he can think of other ways of earning money. Through me or something else.
Andrew James
500 a day = 2,500 wk 52wks x 2500 wk = 130k/yr Poor baby! That’s such a difference.
Noah Gomez
100k isn't rare in the northeast or CA
Grayson Gutierrez
>Who gives a shit if it matters? What matters? You write like you've just had a brain aneurysm. Can't understand shit. Maybe being licensed doesn't matter in Syria, but things are different in Canada, I'm sure.
Adam Walker
>mfw my friend (who was in my uni) didn't even finish studying but is now earning what OP was complaining about in first post, in Canada too
David Williams
Mascot = Rebel
Nathaniel Turner
You forgot the image. Yeah there are always there success stories, but they're more of an exception than something regular. What does he do for a living, anyways?
Matthew Bennett
I know what I did, yep.
What I do for a living.
Bentley Lee
I don't understand this. You'd think as a millennial they'd know how to stretch a dollar. I can live off of 20k a year and now that I'm making white collar money, I don't know what to do with myself.
Lucas Turner
I drive a 2002 honda shitmobile and invest all my money into stocks and crypto
Cameron Diaz
>Fcking brainlet, this is not hard to understand Lithuanian bastard
Let me give you an example: back in thep past I used to work in CGI stuff
Got some people from Venezuela willing to work for 1% a day.
The money they asked were so low that I did not care about their degrees or some other jew first world limiter.
I just send them some blueprints for making 3d models give them a week (average time for doing that work) and when they delivered I paid them 21$ for a week of work from 3 people.
Michael Powell
Lol nigga I make 600 a week and I'm a teacher in the US. Fucking mapleheads
Engineering is a sphere of work that is quite responsible and has to be done correctly. Whereas you can just look at a CGI model and immediately tell if it's good or not.
Xavier Jenkins
Trying to establish work abroad after my current workplace and house gets destroyed.
