Even with the distortions produced my the enormous money printing of the last era those blue collar jobs are still quite valued due to the enormous market demand

Auto repair!

Real homebuilders.

Housing and labor have become commoditized, but there is such a difference between a mass-produced tract home built to a budget and a bespoke, custom home (no matter the size- small or large) built by craftsmen who care about their work. Even early tract homes have stood the test of time, because they were nevertheless built by craftsmen.

A Homebuilder holds the vision; they are like the conductor in an orchestra.

Some days I really miss it.

Roofers are often left out. That work is brutal, they deserve more respect. I've had plenty of arguments with people who go on about robots taking all the jobs but they will never replace all the trades, just won't happen. A robot will never be painting your living room, ever!

Masons and concrete guys.

The television is full of shit these days…

There’s a reason they’re called programs.

Ignore this note, please. I just wanted to have a backup of my seed words 🤙💜

Woof. Definitely not the case for my children nor their friends. Without irony I can say two are currently in college but they have no illusions this will equate to a career.

As a young electrician myself I can not stress the importance of number 2, where I am now it was pretty much drop and go. Figure it out yourself. Though it’s not ideal, especially when you know absolutely nothing. If you have the determination to solve the problems at hand. You will solve them. But when starting at ground zero. It’s good to have a journeyman or team that wants to see you succeed. Great information that she shared.
