All these 'Muricans earning 80k or 100k a year, bruh that's crazy. In Belgium it's like 2000 euro a month after taxes at an average job.

I'm in Canada so running a boiler is regulated by individual provincial boiler branches. They all follow SOPEEC guidelines to some extent as far as certification goes. What this means in practice is doing a class for your 4th class ticket followed by field hours which varies by province (which is not the lowest point in the system, just the average starting point.) then a combination of self study or formal courses on welding, pipe fitting, human resource management, code, electrical theroey, some chemestry, various physics subjects. The Reeds Marine engineering series of books is a good starting point. As is the NALCO water treatment book and the B&W steam book. Follow this with exams and more firing time in a specific job position and minimum boiler size.
It all varies by class with a first class needing 8 exams and 3 years as a shift supervisor generally.

I get paid good, own my own house, deal with water treatment, sync turbine generators into the power grid, open giant steam valves, climb on piping 50 feet in the air, dodge gouts of fire blowing at me and usually dodge orange hot molten smelt and various liquors that spray at me. Also help and co-ordinate my co workers efforts and troubleshoot.

It takes a lot of balls and its hard work mentally and physically a lot of the time. But I still can't talk to girls without getting nervous and scared.
At least the job is entertaining.

I started this job while I was in community college because it allowed me to go to school during the day and work nights. I'm at UC San Diego now and still have the job but I have to reevaluate my approach to education and employment because I am doing poorly this quarter. I am hoping to find a weekend job so I can study 5 days a week because as a physics major, this shit is very challenging but I love it.

I enjoy the actual job but sitting in traffic for 2 hours/day is slowly killing me. But I'm putting over 50% my gross income into savings, mostly this crypto dip right now. Hopefully I'll only have to work for a year or two more or whenever crypto recovers.

Yeah well you actually have a social compassion for your people. If I lose my job and get sick without health insurance, I go bankrupt. A lot of our companies have you work 50+ hours and the vacation can range from nothing to great, but usually 15 days unless you live in a big tech company.

Also, no white cities over 200k population. So if you care at all about recent art scenes, you get to live with brown people and crime.

But yeah, the salary is a lot better, and the land is often cheaper if you like suburbia. Most rural areas have shit/nonexistent tech industry.

Visited a Top Business School in Europe (ranked in the Top 10). However I am lazy and stupid so it was a shitshow my whole studies.

After that, I think I got lucky.

>VC Fund: I applied exactly in the right week, since normally they only take grad students for this position and I was undegrad, but they were short staffed so they needed someone instantly.

>PE Fund: The Managing Director of the fund admired my Boss at the VC Fund, so I got invited. Even though I performed really bad the whole application process (4 rounds), I somehow got the job.

The funny thing is, I work really bad and the stuff that I do is shit, but so far nobody noticed.

you make the others look good

USA healthcare is cheap if you aren't poor. I pay $17.50/m for my insurance with free preventative, and its like a couple grand max I'd have to pay if I actually go seriously sick or injured. Now if you're poor and don't have insurance you essentially don't get healthcare. And if you get sick you go bankrupt or just give up and die of easily preventable diseases.

50% seems stupidly risky. Have you considered the possibility that none of the existing coins will recover?

Being a welfare leech hoodrat

Honestly no, I see crypto as a guaranteed thing. I'm mostly just throwing money in to big protocol coins, with a few moonshots on the side.

We give salaries before taxes

Guaranteed how so? I still can’t shake the feeling that this is all fueled by greater fools.

Imo all investments are fueled by "greater fools," real estate and stock valuations are all essentially more of ponzi scheme than based on the actual value of the underlying asset, the thing is with crypto as apposed to stocks and real estate is that 99% of people have yet to buy in on it.

Thought about doing this having worked as a pipefitter and done water treatment

yeah my company pays for like 90%+ of it.

I feel like you’re mixing overvaluation together with non-valuation, and non-valuation will not gain institutional approval (Dimon etc.)

It's a great profession. But if anyone tells you it's easy to get into they are full of shit. The market for thirds and fourths is hilariously over saturated and as a consequence getting a position without specific experience is hard as fuck, and it has been driving wages down in some sectors.
Second and first classes have a lot of options by virtue of a limited amount of ticket holders, but the problem is getting a job where you can get burn time to get to that point. If you already have a job lined up I would go for it depending on the plant. The work itself varies a lot so that is nice. Right now I'm in a pulp mill, but I have done basic bitch SAGD, sawmill, coal fire power plant, some commissioning and building operations. That covers a nice variety of once through boilers, thermal fluid plants, high pressure watertubes, firetube hot water or low pressure steam, electric, and some ammonia/glycol refrigeration systems. Each one of those falls under the umbrella of operations, but were completely different from each other in scope and duties.

Job has it's downsides, but it's engaging since HVAC guys do a lot of everything (plumbing, sheet metal, carpentry, and control wiring/low-voltage electric). I only do new construction for custom homes (7000sqft+ houses/condos for the most part), so I mostly just tell other guys what to do and make sure they're doing it correctly. Laid back job, I like it.

It's pretty neat. You get paid to drive all day and the only annoyance is the occasional old person being a cunt. No one is there looking over your shoulder, no micromanagement, no real "boss" as you would find in a private company, it's just you in the driver seat making the calls.

Dont exaggerate man, i work a boiler plant at Exxonmobil. Things are prettt much automated or controlled by a panelman. Yeah things get chaotic if there's a major unit upset. Else its pretty much minor field adjustments day to day.

also no niggers, no infant circumcision, no bloodthirsty police etc. even if wages are lower in much of Europe the general quality of life is loads higher.

yeah but who cares about recent art scenes?

Not exaggerating, if anything I'm downplaying it from the last while. Last 8 months the plant has filled with h2s and dimethyl sulfide on a nightly schedule, package boiler melted into a pile of slag, smelt burning a hole through the primary windbox on the recovery boiler and blowing through onto the spout floor like a fucking fireworks fountain. And then the constant and sudden flange leaks on white liquor piping in the recaust area. Things are way better on coal and gas burners compared to hog and turpentine fired boilers and black liquor recovery boilers. Things have been pretty bad lately. I wish I worked at Exxon right about now.
