    Trades/restaurant work/technician jobs all are going to be suffering bc everyone wants a RUclips career. 10 years in restaurants and I was making almost 100k when I was 25. 2 years as a tower technician making almost that much. My friends who went to college for dumb shit are making chump change and bartending. I have friends who went for real degrees for real jobs making closer to 150k. Moral of the story I guess is we need all these kinds of people and we need to stop funneling kids down one avenue or the other.

    I wish I would have learned a trade when I was younger. I want my daughter to learn one even if she doesn’t make a career out of it. Just learn one because it’s handy to know. I don’t think I could build a bird house without it falling apart. I have an old Canoe I’d love to fix up but am not good at woodworking to be able to do it. Would be nice to be able to repair my own car. I did law enforcement in the military, but wish I’d have done something like HVAC or civil engineering. But I saw that as Security Forces in the Air Force I’d get to play with all manner of weapons and got excited about it.

    Kids won’t work a trade cause they can’t impress people saying they work a trade, no. Kids today want a “career” making videos or working a “tech job” cause they think they’ll just sit back and do 3 hours of actual work each week. Programming will wear you out as you figure out 900 lines of code per day,

    • @SmallTownGrit
      @SmallTownGrit 7 месяцев назад

      Coding is probably more exhausting than tiling floor most days. And you're right, the trades are not as fancy and shiny as tech work.
