Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, become a tradecuck.
Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, become a tradecuck
yeah... I became an electrician apprentice for 2 years and all I have to show is back issues and basic wiring experience, its stacked against you, trades are the biggest meme, college is better.
Greentext time.
Go you fucking tradies.
If you're a soft boy like the stereotypical poster on this board, the other guys will not like you. That will put you at a definite disadvantage. Normalfag tradies operate at high stress levels, so jobsite atmosphere is usually pretty high strung. If you do your job as well as possible and work really hard even through the other tradies beaking off at you, you'll be alright. It's hard, but at the end of the day, you'll land in a position where people both respect and need your expertise.
lol right I worked my ass off and was treated like trash for wanting to go to college.
Tradesmen are cucks.
>be tradesman
>work 6-8 months of the year
>NEET for 6-4 months a year
>make 75k a year average within those months
>high skill trade so forever employees and valuable
Pretty awesome desu
Well you gonna tell us what it is...
Nice larp.
I was a plumber for 3yrs and was barely making 30k despite working 50 -60 hrs a week. My boss was a greedy boomer and worked me like a dog.
I shouldnt have fell for the trades meme and went to college.
I really like it though.
Yeah it's hard on the body and I'm surely gonna die prematurely but at least I'm not gonna kill myself out of boredom like I would've done if I kept being an officefag
I'm 25 no education or job and my life is going nowhere.
I'm thinking of attending suicide soon
Called a millwright in my country but some countries we're called industrial mechanics. Fix turbines and and conveyors and assembly robots and stuff lIke that. Literally can't be automated out of a job because we're the guys who install and service automation machines.
Very high skill and highly educated trade. My math and physics education are higher than most undergrads apart from engineers and bachelor of science, and i'm compensated very well for it too.
Sounds like you're from a shit country with a bad trades system. A journeyman plumber here makes 60k and even a third year apprentice would make at leat 45. You wouldn't have even be qualified as a journeyman yet, your career hadn't even started.
>plumber for 3yrs
>only made 30k while working 50-60hrs a week
Where the fuck are you from? Here that's abysmally low the average pay for a plumber.
Start a trade at 25 and you'll be a journeyman by 30 with a set for life career
tradies be like
The biggest problem with being a tradesman is you have to work with other tradesmen, which is usually an unbearable arrangement if you have a triple digit IQ.
If you regularly post on Jow Forums then it means you essentially read for pleasure in some form, and just this probably means that you have an average to above average IQ. Now imagine working daily with a group of guys who aggressively take pride in being uneducated, dumb work cultists. These people don't work to live, they live to work. Slave mentality.
That depends where you work and in what sector.
I'm a welder in a fab shop that does a bunch of aerospace-related contracts and most of us are total nerds.
seems half of you are saying this is the best field ever while the other half are all like i want to fucking die. I don't know what to believe
>"nerd" culture combined with trades
sounds like absolute cancer
Different people like different things. Something not being for you doesn't mean it's inherently shit.
Nerd and geek are two different things.
And when I say cancer I also mean literal cancer from huffing welding fumes all day
Still less cancerous than hanging out with bitchy roasties and faggots all day.
>be IC engineer
>Work mostly in production department
>Don't have to actually do labour intensive work
>Just programming plc drive hmi and occasionally wiring the sensors.
It's comfy bros
A trade is as vague as just saying an office job. There's a hundred different jobs that are all different in those categories. You can be a tradesman who fixes robots and is just below an engineer or you can be a tradesman who stacks bricks.
If youre smart go into a one of the smart trades and you'll never have to stack bricks or be a plumber
There's dozens of different shit that counts as a trade, from brick masons to electricians and even being a chef counts as one. Just find something that interests you if there are any, pretty much what said.
